I'm comfortable getting in front of the camera if it means delivering the message, but more than anything I enjoy writing the scripts and seeing the final project come together.

I've also created guides for using Digital Planners, which have received over 315,000 views on YouTube..

I love working with people who aren't just brilliant, but are also interesting and passionate. Here are some of the things you'll catch me doing in my free time....

work hard, play hard

 I've kayaked + camped through some of the world's most picturesque places.

Ask me about kayaking through Dalmatia, swimming at sunset with blacktip sharks in Exuma, or the night I spent in a tent during a historic windstorm in Norway.

Most Sundays you'll find me cozied up in the dining room or a nearby café with a board game or 1000-piece puzzle.

My favorite games are Dominion, Settlers of Catan, Wingspan, and Swish. I also love puzzles by Danish designer Martin Schwartz.

Huge Nerd for Board Games and Puzzles

I love learning new things, and have been known to take deep dives on various topics in the form of books or long walks with podcasts.

I can probably recommend a list of books or podcasts that'll keep you busy for months.

Meet Walter! My 10-year-old Jack Russell Terrier who loves long rides in the cargo bike and hates pigeons.

His claim to fame is winning the Martha Stewart Pet Costume Contest in 2014, but he hasn't let it go to his head. You'll usually find him taking a nap in the window.

I'm really passionate about hydration, and the impact it has not only on our overall wellbeing, but also on our work and productivity.

In fact, I love talking about it so much that I created an Instagram Account called @HeyYouDrinkWater, which quickly grew to over 16K followers.

Talking about Hydration and Productivity

Although the bulk of my career was spent in the US and working with US-based clients, my life abroad has given me a new perspective on productivity, work/life balance, and time management.

An expat perspective with American roots.
