Life

He works as a mechanical engineer. In 1992, Elkuch founded and owns Elkuch Mechanik AG, a manufacturing company in Eschen.
In 2013, he was elected to the Landtag of Liechtenstein as a member of The Independents. Upon being elected he was noted by foreign media for cross-dressing, though he does not identify as LGBTQ.
In August 2018 Landtag member Erich Hasler was expelled from The Independents under controversial circumstances. Elkuch, along with Thomas Rehak, sided with Hasler and left the party. The following month, the three men founded the Democrats for Liechtenstein. In the 2021 election he was re-elected to the Landtag as a member of the party in his own right. He did not seek re-election in 2025.
Elkuch is widowed and has three children.
