Born on December 4. 1960 in a small town , in the Heart of Switzerland. In the Alps in the Canton of Bern called "Berner Oberland"; would mean Bernese Highlands, in the Swiss
Alps.
Allready as teenager I started taking pictures with cheepest cameras. I studied as autodidact in photogaphy books and booklets , after the manadatory schooltime, my focus layed
on a 4year apprentiship as electrician and sports (cycling).
After having successfully finished the apprentiship, mandatory military sevice was next
During this time I was lucky and got introduced to a person that gave me the chance to change branch into the world of electronics then, during this time I started beside work the
studies for electrical engineer in Telecommunication
During this period of time, I was concentrated on these studies, it took 9-semester to get the degree.
after the studies I too a time out, went to Toronto to improve my English and reactivate my passion for Photography. In my Business Carrier I tried allways having my knowledge up to
date. And was active in different branches.
Until on December 25. my life changed dramatically. In the knight from De.24. to 25. I suffered from a stroke, and my life changed for ever.
In a first phase my left side was completely paralysed, where I was prisonned in the wheelchair.
With the time passing and intensive therapies and intrisic motivation. I got back on my feet and could at least move autonomously.
later on I felt the need doing something creative. And I reactivated, despite my handicap the Photograpy, and did even a education in photograpy.
Most of the images I present on this page are shot after the stroke. Especially the Grizzly Bears in Alaska!
