About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discovering and developing talents and confidence

ABOUT ME

I love to discover, learn, understand and enjoy life in everything I do. Therefore I am always busy and almost never at home. My professional field is education. After several experiences I am working as a learning mentor in an international school where I work on motivation, self-development, academic support. In my free time I teach and practice martial arts to strengthen my mind and body. Writing and reading is also one of my passions. Besides that I love action in a broad sense, mostly being sports or parties!

PHILOSOPHY

Live, travel, adventure, bless...and don't be sorry

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
