About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn

ABOUT ME

I enjoy kicking back in cafes/pubs with people of all types. Teach me about you and your culture, and I will be eternally grateful.

I'm a social entrepreneur, starting up a company in Sweden that works with neighborhood revitalization. We want to help people fill in the gaps and build community.

PHILOSOPHY

What you don't dream doesn't exist.

Interests

Climbing, running, the arts, seeing the sights, meeting you, soaking it all in.

I'm a student of cities. Design, development, redevelopment, sustainability and all things related.
