About
I started working as a design engineer in 1992 at WEFOMA in Bietigheim-Bissingen (Germany), where I also completed my
apprenticeship as a toolmaker.
In the period 1992-1996 I did my studies as a technician at the Max-Eyth School in Stuttgart, which I successfully
completed in January 1997.
Until our emigration to Switzerland in 2008, I was able to gain design experience in various areas at the
WEFOMA company.
The design of aluminum die casting molds and of drawing and punching tools were my main focus, as well as
drawing creation and data preparation on the Catia V5 system.
From October 2008 to August 2021 I worked for the company KEBO. (Switzerland)
My responsibilities ranged from the design of plastic injection molds for well-known customers in the medical
and packaging industries, assistance in new developments and innovations, design of complex assemblies,
detailed designs and drawing derivations, the supervision of the production process to the support of data
preparation, archiving and all data traffic.
The safe handling of the CAD system Siemens NX in connection with Teamcenter is self-evident for me, so that I
also give internal trainings in this area.
In addition, I have built up and expanded standardization to ensure easier and more efficient work.
From April 2015 to March 2016, I was appointed in the context of a partnership with a company in the USA, to
build up a new design office and to introduce the new software Solid-Works. There I successfully managed and
trained the staff.
