I Am Maureen
Burgstahler

I was born in Kenia to a poor family, my parents could not afford the school tuition for me and my siblings. But through my strong will, perseverance and the great support of other people, I was able to graduate from school with good grades, come to Germany almost 20 years ago and complete a very good vocational training.

My life in Africa as well as in Germany has been marked by great hardships and depravations. If you wish, am more than happy to tell you more about my story in a personal first one on one meet-up.

Today, I just love my life; my husband, my children, my environment, my work. I am proud of what I have achieved in both my private and professional endeavours. But I have only been able to walk this path so far because of my clear goals, my confidence and courage in myself and my self-worth, and the support of great people.
