Who is The Pirate of the Cacao Bean?
A seeker of wonder. A song-carrier. A bridge between worlds.
The Pirate of the Cacao Bean was born under the stars of September 13, International Chocolate Day and the birthday of Roald Dahl. A fitting birthdate for one who walks the fine line between play and presence, story and silence.
He is an alter ego.
He is also very real.
The Pirate lives where laughter meets depth. He carries the medicine of cacao, voice, and vibration, not as a guru or guide, but as a reminder.
A reminder that we haven’t lost our way and that what we seek was never lost, just waiting to be remembered.
A Life Lived Between Realms
I'm a self-made person, having started from scratch and learned something new every step of the way. I didn’t plan for this life.
But the whispers of the heart have their own kind of map.
Everything I know, I’ve learned step by step, curious, hands-on, often off the beaten path.
My journey began in media and events. I loved helping others shine, which naturally led me to become a Sound Engineer and Event Producer, first in Mallorca, then in London.
For years, I worked behind the scenes on massive productions across Europe, multi-million dollar events, bright lights, high stakes. But somewhere inside, a quiet question kept echoing: Is this all there is?
In 2017, I heard the first whisper from the Cacao Spirit. I was grocery shopping in London. That whisper grew louder.
In 2018, I found myself on Keith Wilson’s porch by Lake Atitlán, cup in hand, heart wide open. That moment changed everything. From that point on, the path was clear.
I became a Keith’s Cacao facilitator and hit the road in The Cacao Van, sharing this heart-opening medicine across borders.
Then, in 2022, while journeying with the van, another spark ignited. I met Thomas Kiernan from Sounds of Light, and everything clicked: cacao and sound, two forces of deep remembrance, working together in perfect harmony.
I spent most of 2023 in Lake Atitlán with Thomas and Keith. These two became more than teachers, they became mirrors, mentors, and family.
That year was a deep dive into my inner ocean, my wounds, my creativity, my blind spots… and my hidden treasures.
Today, I bring together all I’ve lived decades of experience in sound, years of walking the sacred path of cacao, and a lifetime of learning through listening. I support others in reconnecting with their inner rhythm, their voice, their truth.
It’s an honor to now share this work in my homeland of Mallorca, online, and beyond guided by the spirit of the bean, the voice of the heart, and the wild wind of The Pirate sailing in between realms.
