Autor*in
The author started working as an apprentice in a tool manufacturing company in 1989. After passing the final apprenticeship examination, he worked as an assistant armourer for six months and then pursued his profession as a toolmaker until 1995.
Since 1995, he has continuously developed his professional expertise in the field of sales and grinding services of household goods as an entrepreneur. He could already draw on more than 65 years of experience, which his father and grandfather had gathered in this field and passed on to him. In 1996, he successfully passed the master craftsman's examination in cutlery, followed by the equally successful master craftsman's examination in machine and production technology in 1997.
With decades of professional experience, he has not only built up extensive knowledge, but also continues to show great enthusiasm and curiosity when it comes to acquiring new skills and knowledge.
