As a survey coordinator at TenneT TSO GmbH, I am coordinating all kind of marine surveys for the operation, maintenance and ground investigation for marine power cables and offshore platforms in the German North Sea. A strong background in geology, geotechnics, lab experience, marine surveys, data management and the ESRI products provides the perfect combination of skills for this task.

I am working in a project focusing on the exploration of marine massive sulfides and manganese nodules. I joined marine expeditions of several weeks length. During these seagoing expeditions, I am responsible for the acquisition of hydroacoustic data as well as the processing and the visualization of these data. In addition, I developed a database to store the data.

Project management of renewable energies. Planning and implementation of renewable energy projects such as: - wind power- solar energy - biogas plants - hydropower - heat pump systemsand fuel cell projects. Additional qualification parts are - business administration and environmental management.

Kiel

During my Ph.D., I conducted geotechnical tests using drill core samples from IODP Expeditions and conducted texture measurements using x-ray techniques and microanalysis. I was responsible for:- sampling of drill core samples and outcrops- structural measurements and mapping during fieldwork- sample preparation- geotechnical tests, such as triaxial tests- parameter calculation- pycnometer tests- density/ moisture/ porosity measurements- acoustic investigation of soft marine sediments (p- and s-wave measurements)- x-ray texture goniometry and x-ray diffraction- Rietveld refinement and texture calculation- poster presentation, talks, publications

During my studies, I worked in different divisions as student research assistant. During this time, I was responsible for:- data acquisition and archival storage (Division: Mineralogy)- I assisted the course "Areal Image Analysis" and conducted excursions (Division: Geology)- I conducted particle size analysis (UFZ Halle/Leipzig)

Gera/ Ronneburg

During the "Bundesgartenschau 2007", I worked in the "Renewable Energy Project" and was responsible to guide visitors, to explain techniques and methods. I guided tours through the project and presented renewable energy systems to visitors.
