About Me

My dad told me that I grew out of Barbies almost straight after Santa brought me a red Barbie Ferrari. Sadly, I don't remember this, but I do remember how I was a little disappointed that the car didn't have an engine. I was born in Columbia, Missouri and moved to Denmark when I was 2. I remember visiting my grandma in Ohio and her giving me the most random advice when I was only seven... "always sleep without your panties.. it's good for you!"... it traumatised me for the rest of my youth. My Danish grandad would tell War stories from his trips and how he met African women who had pierced nipples with chains which went from nipple to ear. Grandpa/farfar said "maybe you should get those when you're a lady"... I didn't... yet.

When I grew up, I moved to Paris where I dressed up and danced as clowns and princesses in the magical kingdom of Disneyland. One day, I decided that people find clowns and princesses too scary, so I decided to get myself a higher education at university. Upon my graduation, I worked with events and in commercial radio, where we had bands and artists visit for sessions and interviews. This is when I discovered that some of them drive Ferraris, and occasionally act like clowns and princesses. Currently, I'm expanding my brain size to gain a Masters degree at Copenhagen Business School with a focus on the Creative Industries. When I'm not doing that, I work with, listen to and enjoy discovering new music.

My Interests

Lots of music. Live music, recorded music, music on the radio, music on my iPod, festivals, clubs, concerts, parties, theatre, museums, good food, wine and company, snowboarding, sunshine, new places, new faces, spinning, yoga, pilates and a latte... and enjoying life!
