  • Description

    I'm from the UK but have been living in Berlin since 2019. I have an Irish passport so am able to work in the EU. I love traveling and have previously lived in New Zealand and Vietnam as well as various backpacking adventures. I’m happiest outdoors, whether I’m hiking, swimming, doing yoga, or spending time with animals. I enjoy meeting new people and love learning through shared experiences. Gardening is something I’m still learning, but I’m always keen to help and get my hands dirty. I’m also easing back into meditation (again!) and finding value in quiet moments. In my spare time, I perform improv and stand-up comedy — I love bringing a bit of lightness and humour to everyday life.

  • More details about your skills

    I work as a software developer, so I’m happy to help with IT or anything tech-related. I’ve also worked as an English language teacher and in various admin roles, so I’m comfortable with communication and organisation. I have a drama degree and perform improv and stand-up comedy, so I love bringing creativity and energy to any setting.

    I’ve spent a lot of time hiking, including doing treks like Everest Base Camp, and I’m always up for physical, outdoor work. I’m an okay cook and happy to prepare simple vegetarian meals. Overall, I’m enthusiastic, adaptable, and always keen to lend a hand wherever it’s needed.

    I have volunteered as an English teacher in Kenya and Vietnam before. I was also a listening volunteer for the Samaritans, which is a charity that helps people experiencing mental distress.
