About me

I'm an expat Mechanical Engineer from southern California with extensive experience in the medical device industry. My experiance includes: cataract implants, micro-keritomes, blades, LASIK and epi LASIK surgery, Cataract surgery, DSEAK - Corneal transplantation / keratoplasty, surgical hand drills, dental instruments, electro mechanical systems, precision measuring equipment, plastic injection molding and engineering statistics. As a project engineer, I have taken projects from first idea to first prototype to first surgical field test to first customer sale.

Before working as an Project Engineer for 3 years here in Germany I taught Business English near Lake Constance (Bodensee) at a franchise language school. That is where I found out how little franchise schools pay thier trainers and how great expats are as friends. I always thought there must be a better way for English specialists to acquire new projects, clients and earn higher fees.

Expanding my interest in English language and in an effort to help freelancers bring home the hourly fee they earn, I founded English Profi. We promote and advertise English language specialists to local and international companies who need English trainers, translators and interpreters.

I welcome you to become one of my contacts if you are interested in my experiences or entrepreneurial endeavors. I would like to especially help freelance English trainers, translators and interpreters land new projects and clients. I also want to make contact with human resourses professionals. English Profi will attract more visitors if more English experts are there, add me as a contact and come join English Profi.
