About me:
I am also a 21 years old student of Business Engineering from Klosterneuburg near Vienna. Orienteering is a very big part of my life since I started at the age of 9. The first steps were difficult, but I stayed with the sport and it has become bigger and bigger over the years until now. At the moment I am employed at the Austrian Army as a professional sportsman.
My aims for 2009 are the qualification for WOC in Hungary as well as top placings at the Austrian Championships. For my new Swedish club Göteborg Majorna OK I'll try to perform well at Tiomila and Jukola.
Although my main support is by the Austrian Army (Bundesheer) I am always interested in new supporters to let me participate at international competitions around the world.
