My life started in Germany, as you probably guessed from my name! ;-)
I grew up in a small village in the South West, not too far from the French border and after secondary school in Landau/Pfalz, I did my military service.
This was followed by studying Computer Science & Computer Engineering and I got a M.Sc. from the University of Karlsruhe.
In my first job I was an IT Consultant for CompuNet, Germany's largest IT Consultancy and Systems Integrator at the time. I absolutely loved my job, but other love interfered and brought me to Dublin, Ireland, a move that certainly changed my life!
After a few more stops as a Systems Consultant, I started a telecommunications company with a business partner that we called Broighter Networks and which provides high-bandwidth telecommunications services for businesses.
The company keeps me occupied and we provide a 1st class service to all our customers. (I am looking after Sales & Marketing in Broighter Networks). But over the years I also discovered some other interests that developed into part-time jobs or long-term hobbies:
In 2007 I founded the "Dublin Event Guide (for Free Events)", Ireland's biggest and most popular event publications for cultural events with no admission charges. It grew to 24,000 subscribers and more than 80,000 Facebook Followers. It has changed a little in 2018, but is still going strong with LOTS of followers.
In 2018 I founded the "Inspiring Leadership Academy" to teach leadership and mentoring skills, something I LOVE doing. I am qualified as an Extreme Leadership Facilitator, Business Coach, NLP Master Practitioner & NLP Trainer and Hypnotist.
In 2019 I started providing Online Marketing and IT Support services and I added Web Design a little later. We create websites on Wordpress and have been and are working on some interesting projects. The company is called "Perfect Results Marketing".
In my spare time I love love love playing Padel Tennis and have started to create the Padel is Fun community of English-speaking Padel Tennis enthusiasts. I am a Padel Coach, I am also a Krav Maga (Self-defence) Instructor, Sound Engineer for the popular Gardiner Street Gospel Choir, Singer in an Elvis Tribute Band, Electric Unicycle Enthusiast, Bass Player, Blues Harmonica Player, Flying Enthusiast and general Problem Solver.
I love being busy as long as it with things that I love! Live is good and I am enjoying it! ;-)
As a "pressure valve" I post my thoughts and opinions about things that are going wrong in Ireland in a blog at times. It is not really a regular blog and a LOT of internal pressure is needed before I release it through the blog, but if you are interested in Joerg's Ramblings, give it a go.
