VBO Tickets

I believe hard work and dedication gets results. This formula led me to creating and growing one of the most powerful event ticketing software solutions in the market today.

Coming to the U.S from East Germany in my 20s, I got a masters degree in business, and worked a position at a global commercial printing company. Through connections in the event industry early on, it became clear there was a need for better event ticketing solutions. This launched my interest in programming and technology, eventually allowing me to bring VBO Tickets to the masses. Today I lead a team of developers, designers, sales and industry specialists; all striving to evolve event ticketing and help organizations succeed in a changing world.

While my passion is in VBO Tickets, my life consists of a wonderful family and circle of friends who make it worth the dedication that has been the development and leadership.
