Education

My education at hotel management school and my MBA in tourism management at Johannes Kepler University Linz laid the foundation for my career in gastronomy, hospitality and tourism.

Politics

As a member of the Upper Austrian state parliament, I am actively involved in economic and tourism-related topics. Within the Chamber of Commerce, I serve as head of the hospitality division in Upper Austria, member of the national hospitality association and district spokesperson for the hospitality sector in Linz. I am also a member of the district committee in Linz City.

Other Roles

Alongside my political and business activities, I serve as a lay judge and as an examiner and trainer at WIFI. I am also active on the supervisory board of Creative Region Linz & Upper Austria and a board member of Hotspots, the largest gastronomy and hospitality association in Upper Austria.

My Focus

As a networker, political shaper and committed representative of the hospitality sector, I work to advance gastronomy and tourism in Upper Austria and beyond. My focus is on future-oriented solutions, strong partnerships and the sustainable strengthening of the hospitality industry.
