With a background shaped in the creative arts, I continued my passion for communication and story telling as a presenter, reporter and producer in both radio and TV, as a writer and journalist and in a workshop setting as a facilitator and speaker, creating the easier title, "Storyteller". I enjoy empowering and inspiring others to challenge themselves and live life to the full as I try to do that in my life, thus I decided to reach out to incredible kickass people from my three biggest passions in life: music, adventure and culture. Combining my love for presenting, interviewing and empowering others, the Let’s Go Kickass Today podcast was born.
