How long have you been working at the CUAT? What do you particularly like about your job?

I’ve only been part of the CUAT since April 2024, but it feels like much longer, given how familiar it all is. I like the team spirit and the sense of appreciation, as well as the mission to make teaching exciting and dynamic.

What are the three words your friends would use to describe you?

creative, reliable, conscientious

What are you reading at the moment? What are your favourite books?

„Das Gedächtnis der Töchter“ and books by Fitzek. I prefer reading the latter. Sebastian Fitzek has a real talent for captivating you with his stories; they’re a great way for me to switch off.

If you could get rid of one annoying habit straight away, which one would it be?

To stop being so self-critical.

What do you spend most of your money on?

Definitely on hobbies, including plants and my creative side – I’ve only just got myself a plotter, complete with all the materials. I’m also passionate about photography… I’ve been eyeing up a proper camera for ages; maybe one day I’ll fulfil that dream and really let my creativity run wild. :o)
