About

Trainer, coach and your e-learning partner.

I have been training people for over ten years. As head of technical training at a large German copier and IT company, I taught more than 1,000 participants in classroom sessions and learned what it takes for knowledge to truly stick.

For the past five years my focus has been on developing digital learning content. In 2023 I founded Knowledge Expert to deliver custom e-learnings and learning videos that fit each company's brand and learning goals.

Learning does not stop at the screen for me. For over ten years I have been an American football coach and have guided numerous youth teams. I have helped many young people learn what really matters: discipline, team spirit and the will to get a little better every day. I bring exactly this attitude to every project.

Responsibility does not end on the field. As founder of the charity The Last Catch, I support people in need in Hamburg and the surrounding area every year. Real togetherness matters to me, in work and in volunteering.

I work in a focused and pragmatic way, communicate openly and honestly and respond to every client need. Even on large projects and when things are unclear, I reliably guide you to the finished course.

Audio samples

My voice for your courses.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

What exactly do I receive in the end?

A finished, SCORM-ready e-learning that you can import directly into your LMS, fully in your brand's corporate design. On request also learning videos and the recorded audio tracks.

Which tools do you work with?

For course development I mainly use Articulate Storyline and iSpring. Graphics, editing and motion are created in Adobe Photoshop, Premiere Pro and After Effects. The output is SCORM-compatible and suitable for common learning platforms.

Do you also handle the voice-over?

Yes. I record the courses myself, natural-sounding, in German and English. This way your entire learning program sounds consistent. You can find audio samples above on this page.

Can you convert existing content such as PowerPoint?

Yes. Existing slides, documents or training materials are a good starting point. I turn them into an interactive e-learning, didactically prepared.

How does the collaboration work?

In clear steps: briefing, concept and storyboard, production, review and delivery. You can find the exact flow in the Process section. You are involved at every stage and give your approval.

Do you work remotely and internationally?

Yes. I am based in Hamburg and work across Germany and internationally, remotely. I deliver projects in German and English.

What does an e-learning cost?

It depends on scope, interactivity, video share and voice-over. After a short briefing you receive a transparent quote. Tell me about your project and I will get back to you with an estimate.
