Ever since Lucas was a doctoral student in my group at ETH Zurich I have been very much impressed by his ability to combine strong environmental and civil engineering skills with systematic analysis of social, economic and political issues in order to come up with hands-on solutions to important real-world problems.

Working for Lucas was a great experience that I could honestly say made me feel more capable, smarter, and effective. He is the master of instilling confidence in all employees, regardless of their position or rank. He had his way of making you feel like you were part of a team and that what you did always mattered. His humble, energetic, and down-to-earth character is contagious.

I very much like to work together with Lucas because of his open communication style and out of the box thinking!

The approach of Lucas and his team is tangible in a very positive way and on all levels. Lucas has a very good technical understanding of what entails Water Resources Management.  Besides that, he is strong by implementing his vision in coordination with other partners. Lucas really contributes in an excellent way in particular on an institutional level to bring Bekaa Water Establishment a big step forward.

I like to work together with Lucas especially because of his conciliatory and transparent manner within a team, but also his openness and positive attitude to work with people.

Lucas is full of compassion for people. He has a direct and easy going approach to talk to people during his field trips, which allows him to grasp the essence of the problems very fast. I enjoyed very much working with him.
