Education and professional career

After completing his training, he found a job with the Cameral and Tax Administration in Weimar, first as a secretary, then as an assessor, councilor and finally as director and president of the Chamber College.

As a part-time job, he was entrusted with the administration and restructuring of the completely broken finances of the University of Jena . He eliminated the then temporary bankruptcy of the academic treasury and even accumulated reserves, so that he left the university finances in a relatively prosperous condition when he died. For his efforts to reorganize the finances of the University of Jena, he was honored by the Ernestine Dukes with the Commander's Cross of the joint Ernestine House Order and by the University with the title of Honorary Doctor of Laws. From the Grand Duke of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach he received the Knight's Cross and later the Commander's Cross of the House Order of the White Falcon .
