My lifelong passion for technology was ignited by a childhood fascination with screwdrivers, electro-mechanical pinball machines, klunker bikes, the treasures found in dad’s workshop… and garbage dumpsites. This deep enthusiasm often left my parents and teachers bewildered for years.

Despite facing challenges related to being unrecognized on ‘the spectrum’ during my 'formative' years, I carved out a unique path filled with adventures in the tech world. With experience as a strategist, teacher, coach, transmedia storyteller, and artist, I'm currently involved in an advisory agency that specialises in offering ‘unsolicited advises’ on an open and just society (SABOA foundation). With the FediVariety (circus) and the current research project on Fediverse integration in/for Public Administration as a result.
