Geraldine has studied both in Europe and the USA and holds a degree in adult education, music and media science from Humboldt University. She is the co-founder of East African Soul Train collective – a project that brings together artists and creative sector stakeholders across cultures and disciplines in an intense journey on East Africa’s historic railway tracks to foster collaboration across boundaries. Her educational background ranges from an executive assistant certificate from Switzerland that opened the world of business and law to her, to intensive one year long programs in Liberal Arts, Music (Guitar/Arrangement) and Bodywork in the USA before returning to Berlin in 2008. From a very young age, Geraldine has worked with youth groups for cultural understanding, personal growth, team building, mediation and environmental protection through circus, art and adventure pedagogy and has extensive experience in organizing cultural events for community building.
She speaks five languages and is eager to become fluent in Swahili and Portuguese. Other than climbing, dancing and making music, she loves to bring people together to take initiatives to new levels, go on adventures and organize art/music events and festivals.
