I am an Austrian-Californian Multimedia Artist. I became a creativity-awareness educator through my experience-based, outside-the-box upbringing that I was forced into, through my neurodiversity.

I am totally self-taught, author of 5 books, podcaster, speaker, guide, former Newport Beach, CA Arts Commissioner, and co-produced with Robert Evans. Fluent in German and English.

My ability is that I can see hidden contexts, which allows me to resolve paradoxes, and together we arrive at awareness solutions in leadership, hospitality, customer service, communication, success vs. fulfillment, and obviously any form of creativity and culture.

Smarter systems don’t just save time. They expand what mission-driven teams can accomplish. I help organizations simplify the complex, from scholarships and grants to disability accommodations and admissions — so their programs can scale without overwhelming their people.

With over 25 years in nonprofit and education technology, I’ve partnered with universities, associations, and philanthropic organizations to lead digital transformation behind the scenes.
