About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Live now and here

ABOUT ME
I enjoy spending time with fascinating and motivating individuals. I'm a great listener, always eager to learn, and I find joy in laughter. Exploring new things and taking strolls or bike rides are my cup of tea. While I'm not a regular drinker, I'm open to sharing a beer with you anytime. Building new friendships comes naturally to me, and I cherish the longstanding connections I have maintained for over 27 years with some dear friends.

PHILOSOPHY
It is often wiser to regret taking action than to regret inaction.
Pursue happiness without limits.
There are just as many solutions as there are problems.
Only 4% of your anxiety is genuine worry.
