When the collegiate foundation at the Nikolaikirche was founded , he initially held the office of cantor. After dean Johannes Wulff fled because of inner-city conflicts, he became dean of the monastery himself.

Among other things, he donated a vicariate and gave the university several vessels, including a large jug for the artist faculty . On October 18, 1460 he was elected rector of the university. He died during his tenure in January of the following year and was buried in the Nikolaikirche, where his grave slab has been preserved in fragments. His successor as dean was Hermann Slupwachter .

In his will he topped up the vicariate in favor of his successors in the deanery and endowed a further vicariate each at the Marien- and Jakobikirche . He donated his house at Nikolaikirchstrasse 1 (today Caspar-David-Friedrich-Strasse 1) as an official residence for his successors in the Dean's Office. He donated a total of eight charities to the St. George Hospitals in Greifswald and Gristow and the Pudagla Monastery . At the same time he bequeathed a number of valuable books to these foundations and the artist faculty and several treasures to the Vicarie at the Jakobikirche.
