I am inspired by the basic idea of sustainability as flourishing: balancing corporate profits with environmental and social wellbeing. I believe, however, that real sustainability can only be achieved through understanding different perspectives and willingness to search for common goals. In my daily life, I try to align my action according to this approach.

I am happy to accept contract enquiries when the clients are open to change, creativity and participation; when things do not have to stay as they are, and everybody is actively looking for new ideas; and, everyone has a say, and both diversity and disagreement are seen as exploitable potential for development.
