About Me
CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME
I've spent a lifetime in occupations/vocations in international business, economic development, visual & performing arts, holistic healing & personal human growth. I've lived & worked in many countries & cultures and speak 4 languages: English (mother tongue), French, German, some Dutch. Experience includes: trade & industrial development, communications, sales, public relations, event promotion, fine/ contemporary art, theatre, public speaking, MC/hosting, sustainability, storytelling, workshops, clinical hypnosis, ideas-factory, spiritual growth and creative writing.
Responsible for fostering relationships in industry, commerce, government & community. I have lived in cities, countryside, and 2 years in community. I believe conscious, sustainable eco-communities exemplify creative, caring socio-economic living.
I am committed to supporting the growth of resilient community by sharing my experience, skills and wisdoms from a life-time at the sharp end of Life. These include creativity, strategic implementation, empathy, intuition, humour, diplomacy, motivation and leadership. I enjoy inspiring people to create harmonious environments to thrive in (I am also considered a peace maker). I delight in supporting individuals, & groups to come together in common cause for sustainable connection, concord and cooperation.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
... have grown from a kind, fun, irresponsible, spendthrift, cosmopolitan, creative, ungrounded dreamer and lad-about-town into a responsible, thrifty, cosmopolitan, kinder, more creative, more fun, well grounded Man of the World and student of the Cosmos.. Far too many amazing stories of exploits, experiences, hilarious mistakes and errors of judgement, wondrous meetings and friendships to mention here... but happy to recount humorously over a good meal and glass of wine or three!
