About Me

I’m half Danish, half French, and spent most of my childhood in France. I’m now 49 years old, married to a Burmese national, and proud to have a four-year-old son who is also part of the MISY family. I speak French, German, and English, and I truly value being part of an international and culturally diverse school community. Living and working in such a setting allows me to share and learn from different perspectives every day, both personally and professionally.

Area of Special Interest

Having embarked on my journey through Asia two decades ago, I discovered my passion for sports that led me from Laos to Papua. Guided by my love for nature and its simple yet remarkable inhabitants, I’ve sought to share this love through a diverse range of activities. As a Canyoneering and Diving Instructor, I’ve channeled my expertise towards the great outdoors, utilizing my extensive knowledge to organize sports experiences that prioritize safety and exhilaration. In 2018, my path led me to Myanmar, where I first taught PE for secondary and high school.
