Description
I believe in our genuine kind-hearted nature, the power of appreciation and respect, and the value of our differences. War is an aberration, not the norm.
To describe myself in a few concise points, I am:
• Organized, reliable, creative, and solution-oriented
• Someone who enjoys structure and responsibility
• Skilled with people, planning, and logistics
• Comfortable taking initiative and communicating with clarity
• Intentionally shifting into meaningful, purpose-driven work
• Grounded, relaxed, and steady under pressure
I have lived and worked in several countries, including New Zealand, Cuba, France, Germany, the UK, Malta, and the United States. This has given me perspective, adaptability, and a genuine appreciation for different cultures and ways of thinking. The more you see, the more you realize how much there always is to learn.
At this stage, I am exploring opportunities ranging from hands-on renovation and improvement work to coordination roles in community-based projects, creative environments, and personal development spaces. I am focused on building sustainable income streams and contributing meaningfully to projects that value mutual growth, clarity, and responsibility.
I bring a mature mindset, curiosity, clear communication, and genuine care for the spaces and people around me.
Languages: English, German, French, Spanish, and Italian (confident and fluent across the board).
Professional background includes construction and carpentry, gardening, project and account management in a corporate setting, and owning my own business. I enjoy combining practical skill with organization and clear direction.
On the artistic side, I am nurturing my passion for music and writing. I have performed in various settings, from solo performances to bands. I play saxophone and flute.
