After a career in political advocacy in labor law - including as an expert witness in the German Bundestag - he has returned to the practice of labor law, predominantly on the employee side. Jean-Baptiste studied in Halle and Seoul and has lived in Berlin since 2009. In his free time, he enjoys cooking for his friends and discussing with his kids which dog on Paw Patrol is the best (Everest, obviously).
