General
PARTNER
He teamed up with Clemens Wickler in late 2017. "We get along really well. The beach volleyball partnership is very special, because you spend an incredible amount of time together. It is a huge advantage that we understand each other so well and that it all works." (eimsbuetteler-nachrichten.de, 25 Sep 2018)

STUDIES
He combines his sport career with studying law. "My parents are lawyers and I really enjoy understanding the logic behind this. I started law studies right after high school, because it was clear that I will study for a long time. In summer I'm studying part-time, but in winter I am full-time at university."
