One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quit a succesfull basketball career to pursue my arts.

Teach, Learn, Share

My knowledge and passion about wine, with emphasis on food pairing. My opinions about art, style and colours. The importance of a well balanced colour scheme, plus the influence of warm and bright colours.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My art. A water coloured painting, or if I stay long enough, a acrylic painting on canvas. I am also great in the kitchen, as I enjoy cooking.
