I fell in love with Ultimate on the beautiful beaches of the Canary Islands, but soon Ultimate took me to many different places. I was intrigued by the community of wonderful people and went on to play in many international tournaments, with clubs teams from Germany or the German Mixed National Team. These people keep inspiring me and Ultimate has become a big part of my life. Combined with my interest in communication as a PhD student in linguistics, I felt like UP was the perfect opportunity to combine these two fields and pass on some of my experiences I was lucky to have to others.
