About Me

CURRENT MISSION
I want to change the media...small task. I believe there is a better way to tell stories around the world and it starts with co-creating.
GO!

ABOUT ME

I have lived and worked in many places over the past few years. I consider myself a savvy traveler and an outgoing person. When I'm not working in the culture scene (producing or making things happen in a city) then I'm outside climbing walls or biking around.

PHILOSOPHY

Just go out and do it! "Never say life is short, because its the longest thing you'll ever do."

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

never surfed before!

Interests

I spent the last three years studying in Denmark at a small creative leadership and social entrepreneurship school called the Kaospilots. Besides that I like rock climbing and biking. I am good with my hands and like building things for people. I am very resourceful in new places and like meeting new people, even though I'm introverted and very self aware.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have worked in the desert in South Africa in a temporary city for radical self reliance.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to connect and share life stories with new people. I am always curious and up for enjoying a glass of wine or a bottle of beer. Stories are what I believe changes and shapes the world.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like cooking a few classic dishes which I make well. Risotto, pancakes, potato gratin, and chocloate moose. Not all at once though... ;)
