Michelle loves doing and exploring all things whimsical. She is the artist behind Whimsical Life Blooms (www.whimsical.dk), a creative space for flower arranging and artistic expression. She organizes and hosts flower workshops and Ikebana experiences in Copenhagen, creating spaces where people can pause, observe, connect, and express themselves through nature. Michelle takes a playful, contemporary approach to Ikebana while drawing inspiration from its principles of balance, harmony, space, color, and form. She loves experimenting with unexpected combinations of colors. Her creativity also extends to calligraphy and other forms of arts and crafts.

Alongside her artistic practice, Michelle is a co-founder, creative technologist, and community builder behind ULAP.org (www.ulap.org) and Maribatech ApS (www.maribatech.dk). She brings many of the same principles she finds in floristry into her work with technology and community-driven work: intentionality, creativity, simplicity, and human connection.

Whether arts, building products, or bringing communities together, Michelle is interested in creating thoughtful experiences that invite us to notice more, connect more deeply, and find a little more whimsy in everyday life.
