ABOUT ME
I like things short, sweet and authentic. I cherish my mom and my memories of spending summers in a little village called Bromberg. It is where I fell in love with nature. I left young to live with a family in the Pacific Northwest, USA, for a year. They taught me that anything is possible and made me want to see the world.
So, I traveled. I have waited tables in Spain and fallen in love in Mexico and studied in Paris. I have worked for free at law firms in Prague, NGOs in Brussels and at the United Nations. And then I worked my way up to become a Marketing Executive and later a wife, mom and female-founder, in Vienna, Austria. I want to do my part to see purposeful businesses flourish and women succeed.
