Tim grew up in a French German binational family in the coldest place of France, the so called "Little Siberia". He recently graduated from the Free University of Berlin, where he has been studying political sciences. His studies encompassed political theory, environmental politics, international relations as well as political communication and negotiation. During his bachelor, Tim spent a year at the University of Oslo (UiO) as an exchange student. This experience raised his interest in polar matters and brought him to UArctic.
In the next months, a major focus of his will be UArctic communications. He will be updating the news feeds, developing social media strategies and initiating new partnerships with central European institutions. The International Secretariat in Rovaniemi is excited to welcome Tim. His internship will run until June and has been fostered by a grant of the Erasmus Program.
