My work, My passion

DJ

I love music and come from a family of musicians and music lovers. Music transcends space and time! It communicates without language and is a cultural exchange catalyst like no other. I have been a DJ for 20 years -rocking dance floors, empowering youth and womxn through music.

I am woman. And I consider it to be one of my top superpowers. I utilize being a woman in every aspect of my life – in my leadership style, my authenticity, my work ethics and my passion for the feminine ethos.

MOTHER

I am a mother with a capital M. I have two sons and am the bonus mother of 2 girls. I have 2 and I have 4 kids depending on when you ask me. They are the future and I work to make the world a better place for them – through my work, being a rolemodel and being authentic me.

I am a family person and I have a big extended one made of the people I have chosen and the one that was chosen for me. I cherish being a sister: of friendship, color and family!

Me, Myself and I

For the last 15 years I have been focusing on development issues, social entrepreneurship and ecosystem building in Denmark and Sub- Saharan Africa. In government institutions, NGOs, as founder, consultant, manager and CEO.

Purpose means many different things to many people. For me a life of purpose translates into working with creating value, not only for myself by attaining my personal goals but creating impact for society through a collaborative approach. I am lucky to have been working in this space for quite a while – it has lead to meaningful encounters, fun and hard work and it has made me happy!

My current role is CEO of Impact Hub Johannesburg – it is rewarding, exciting and full of purpose. To change society, to empowering my all female team and to create meaningful impact. I do consulting on the side and build bridges between my two continents.

I split my time between Denmark and South Africa and I travel with my kids and my husband. Being from both countries it is a privilege to be able to work, live and love with a foot in both countries.
