Reporter & Artist

Building an antidote to shallow media.

We live in an era of infinite scroll and zero attention span. Journalism is losing the battle for relevance. My work is the counter-offensive.

I am a reporter, artist, and founder dedicated to building an antidote to shallow media. From co-founding Outriders and Mixer to establishing physical hubs like the Outriders Klub, I merge old-school journalistic integrity with avant-garde forms—VR, theatre, and interactive art.

I don’t just report on the world; I create experiences that force you to feel it.

On Stage. Provoking thought. Defining the future.

I help organizations navigate the intersection of humanity, technology, and storytelling. My keynotes are not lectures; they are calls to action. So are the wrokshops:

  • Artistic Journalism: Why empathy is the only metric that matters in the AI era.

  • Human-Centric Tech: Using AI to amplify creativity, not replace it.

Previous engagements include: INMA World Congress • European Journalism Centre • Google News Initiative • TEDx • International Live Journalism Festival
