IT Consultant & Architekt / VMware-Experte / offizieller VMware-Trainer

I am a data center technologist based in Frankfurt (Germany) with more than
15 years of experience within the IT industry. What started as a career in data center
administration moved swiftly into IT consulting and training with the focus on mostly
VMware-based virtualization and other related IT infrastructure technologies. I combine
my deep technical and excellent educational skills to deliver the best solutions to my
clients, who span across many industries in EMEA.

On the certification side of things I do hold several advanced certifications, including VMware Certified Implementation Expert - Data Center Virtualization 2020 (VCIX-DCV 2020), VMware Certified Implementation Expert - Network Virtualization 2020 (VCIX-NV 2020) and multiple VMware Specialist badges.
In the last decade, I have become a well-known advanced VMware Certified Instructor
(VCI) Level 2, teaching classes across EMEA within Software-Defined Data Center (SDDC)
technologies including VMware vSphere, vSAN, NSX-T as well as multiple products of the vRealize Suite.

In this role, I did receive the VCI Achievement Award for his outstanding contribution and
the best instructor evaluations in EMEA, presented on VCI Day at VMworld Europe 2013.
Additionally VMware I was awarded a vExpert in both 2016 and 2017.

Since 2010 I have been working as a freelance IT Consultant and Technical Instructor,
currently focusing on virtualization technologies, cloud enablement and data center automation.
