Personal details
I was born on March 18, 1982, in Eggenfelden and grew up in Mühldorf am Inn. My parents had a significant impact on me from an early age - my father as a civil engineer and my mother as an expert in insurance and marketing. Together with my sisters Bianca and Tanja, I had a wonderful childhood. Although we have taken different paths in our lives, we still share a strong bond. The post-war experiences and the associated frugality of my grandparents have greatly influenced me in my life.
Learning
As a bright child and due to my high intelligence (with an IQ over 135), I had a varied academic journey. I attended the gymnasium in Mühldorf am Inn and Gars am Inn, then switched to the Realschule in Waldkraiburg, and finally to the Wirtschaftsschule in Mühldorf am Inn.
During my school years, I discovered my interest in real estate. After completing my education, I began my professional career at a renowned residential property developer. There, I gained comprehensive knowledge in the real estate industry and construction. The collaboration between the property developer and the Fraunhofer Institute for Building Physics encouraged me to embrace new ideas and think in a future-oriented manner.
Giftedness
I openly embrace my giftedness, which allows me to perceive problems and situations in a unique way and find suitable solutions. My high cognitive ability enables me to quickly grasp complex connections and adopt different perspectives. I enjoy contemplating various topics and consistently discover new ways that efficiently lead to the desired outcome.
For me, it is a natural talent. I have a deep curiosity and an insatiable thirst for knowledge that drives me to explore new areas and expand my understanding. I am always striving to apply my knowledge to practical applications and find innovative solutions.
IQ Memberships
As a highly gifted individual, the exchange with like-minded people is of great importance to me. That is why I am proud to be a member of some different IQ societies and Mensa, the world's largest and oldest high IQ society. Mensa provides a platform for intellectual exchange, networking, and the support of gifted individuals. By participating in Mensa meetings, events, and online discussions, I have the opportunity to connect with other gifted individuals and learn from their experiences and perspectives. The exchange with like-minded people is a valuable source of inspiration and growth. Together, we can share our interests, abilities, and challenges, and support each other.
Free Time
In my free time, I have various interests and hobbies. I enjoy traveling to interesting and extraordinary places both domestically and internationally. A cruise is the best way for me to recharge my energy for my professional challenges and to explore new cultures. However, I can also clear my mind at home by reading non-fiction books and spending time with my family. As a connoisseur, I enjoy dining out and look forward to culinary experiences in restaurants and cafes
Another hobby of mine is visiting thermal baths and saunas. There, I can relax and recharge my energy. I am also interested in music and movies. I enjoy listening to various music genres and watching films, especially comedies, action, adventure, fantasy, mystery, science fiction, martial arts, and animation. TV series are also among my favorite pastimes.
Furthermore, I have an interest in art and culture. I enjoy visiting museums and exhibitions with a focus on technology, natural sciences, and historical context. Dancing is also one of my passions. I regularly attend dance schools and enjoy dancing classical and Latin dances. Additionally, I like to take walks in nature and occasionally go stand-up paddling on lakes.
Furthermore, I have an interest in the Middle Ages and enjoy attending medieval festivals. I also have an affinity for medieval fantasy LARP (Live Action Role-Playing) conventions and love immersing myself in that world. Additionally, I am a big fan of Christmas markets and enjoy the special atmosphere they offer.
Artificial Intelligence
Another fascinating field that I pay great attention to is the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI). I enthusiastically follow the advancements in this area and utilize AI algorithms, among other things, to create impressive photos and graphics. The possibilities that arise from the use of AI are virtually limitless. From image editing to generating creative designs, AI allows me to elevate my artistic vision to a new level.
Business
After various positions in the real estate industry and marketing, I took over the leadership of Pegasus Gesellschaft für Immobilien-, Anlagen-, Finanzierungs- und Versicherungsvermittlung mbH - Pegasus24 for short - in 2008. There, I restructured the business areas and implemented a new market presence. The brand Pegasus24 was born.
Throughout my professional career, I have gained extensive experience in real estate marketing, real estate financing, real estate project development, IT systems, leadership skills, consulting, and sales. I worked as a business consultant for various clients and served as a technical sales trainer for AMD - Advanced Micro Devices - in southern Germany. Additionally, I worked as a consultant for companies such as Atrium Wohn- und Gewerbebau GmbH, M-IT-A Werbe- und IT-Systeme, and World Wide Investments GmbH & Co KG.
As the CEO of Pegasus24, I am responsible for the sale of real estate with a focus on residential properties and global investment brokerage, project development of new construction projects, construction financing, as well as business consulting and training for various industries and company sizes. My goal is to offer our clients tailor-made solutions and comprehensive support for their real estate projects.
In recent years, I have successfully brokered smaller investment properties. However, since 2019, I have increasingly entered this field as market conditions have changed and new opportunities have arisen. Since then, esteemed clients such as family offices, construction and financial investors, as well as insurance companies, have become part of my clientele. In 2021, I had the opportunity to manage real estate portfolios worth over 200 million euros. I work closely with them and support them in the brokerage of real estate projects in the residential, commercial, and retail sectors on a global scale. With my solid expertise and extensive network, I can fulfill the needs of my clients optimally. My goal is to build long-term partnerships and jointly realize successful real estate projects.
Further Education
Continuing education demonstrates a commitment to continuous learning and a willingness to develop in various fields. It complements my already extensive knowledge and experience in real estate brokerage, financing, and consulting. Here is an excerpt of the further education courses I have completed between 2020 and 2023:
- Certified Insurance Sales Professional at the Chamber of Industry and Commerce (IHK): I have successfully passed the examination to become a certified insurance sales professional at the Chamber of Industry and Commerce (IHK). This further education course provided me with comprehensive knowledge in the field of insurance sales and prepared me for the requirements of the insurance market.

These courses taught me how digital technologies and agile work practices can be successfully implemented in companies to develop innovative business models and gain a competitive advantage.

- Certified Expert in Public Service at DBV: I have obtained certification as an expert in public service at DBV. This further education course provided me with specific knowledge about the public service sector and prepared me for advising civil servants and employees in the public sector.
Social Engagement
In addition to my professional activities, I am involved in volunteering for the Helmbrecht2025 project in the production department of the theater play. Helmbrecht2025 is an impressive open-air festival that will take place in 2025 to celebrate the 1000th anniversary of the first documented mention of the city of Burghausen. The festival will be performed in a total of 11 shows, with approximately 1500 spectators expected at each performance. With over 1000 participants on and off stage, this project is of remarkable size and diversity. I am proud to be part of this project and to contribute to the cultural diversity of our region. It is a wonderful opportunity to combine my passion for the performing arts with my volunteer work and to create an unforgettable experience for the audience together with a dedicated team.
Music as Dandi Di
In addition to my diverse professional interests and commitments, I have a great passion for music. Under the artist name 'Dandi Di', I release my own songs and explore various genres. Since my beginnings, I have already released 11 songs and continuously work on new projects. Each song is an expression of my creative vision and musical versatility. From energetic tracks like 'I'm Like a Diamond' and 'I'm Your Friend' to heartfelt pieces like 'A Dance of Surrender' and 'Pulse to Pulse' - my music reflects my emotions and my love for music. With the song 'A Force You Can't Escape', I even ventured into the world of metal music. I am proud to share my musical works with the world and hope that they inspire and touch the listeners. If you would like to discover more of my music, you can find my songs on platforms such as Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, Amazon Music, YouTube and many more.
