After having spent the first two-thirds of my working life in the Automotive Collision Repairs (BMW Body & Paint, Akzo Nobel Car Refinishes), I embraced 21 years ago the opportunity & challenge to change disciplines and enter the field of Underground Construction/Mining Solutions via CarboTech GmbH (Carbotech was subsequently acquired by Minova and then Orica)
Having an in-depth technical/hands on knowledge & Senior Managerial experience of both business sectors has given me a wide spectrum of experience and career development from working with MNC's from which I can draw.
Additionally, the 26 years I have lived and worked in APAC & South Asia have also given me a concise understanding of the region and ability to communicate at all levels to build trust and ensure success in this diverse multi cultural environment.
I have resided in Thailand 3 times, Malaysia, Viet Nam & India during the past 26 years.
I currently reside in Bangkok & Mahasarakham (North East Thailand)
My experience has enabled me to work successfully autonomously or as part of a Project/Global team.
