M.A. Politics, History and Business Administration
Carefully formulated public relations communications in classic and “new” media are his thing. Ekkehard originally wanted to become a sports journalist. Luckily for us, at some point he abandoned this plan after spending time at universities in Bonn and South Africa, where he studied history, politics and business administration. After a number of jobs with prestigious advertising and PR agencies he now works with our Gischt & Glut team, both on fixed contracts and as a freelancer. The diverse range of tasks and issues which he deals with on a daily basis in the course of his work has always fascinated him.
So it is no surprise that his client list to date includes well-known brands such as Shell, Haspa, Volkswagen, Mercedes Benz, Cisco Systems, the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg and IKEA.
Family and friends are particularly important to him. He has two sons with his wife Bianca and enjoys spending holidays by the sea with them. Ekkehard is a keen amateur BBQ chef; loves riding motorbikes; music (both listening to and making it); travelling and beach volleyball. In the evenings and at weekends you will often find him at Wedel Beach Club, which he considers to be Hamburg’s only genuine beach club.
