Starting only four years ago at the French online travel agent Voyage Privé in Aix-en-Provence, Ronald is fairly new to the travel industry. He later brought Hoteliers.com from Amsterdam to Germany, Austria and Switzerland and is now representing the very ambitious DACH region for Profitroom, an innovative online sales and marketing platform. Here the focus is on luxury independent hotels and resorts, empowering them to take control of their online distribution with dedicated account management and continually developing products including an online booking engine, CRM, Websites, Channel Manager and other marketing services.

Founding his first company at the age of 17, Ronald’s recent years experience in travel combined with an always entrepreneurially-driven approach makes him unique in the sector, with a different perspective to others. This also led him to his latest project Der Hotel-Podcast where he collaborates with exciting characters in wonderful hotels, talking about what it means for them working in the hotel industry, the current challenges they are facing and summarising the latest events, conventions and trade shows in a relaxed and open environment.

In his private life, you will find Ronald in his vineyard surrounded by his wife and two sons or on his bike racing up and down the hills around his hometown, Stuttgart in Southern Germany.
