Biography

Nathalie Kossek is a Creative Director and wellness practitioner living on the west coast of California.

Her 15+ years of experience have lead her through roles in photography, creative direction and creative production — specifically in the entertainment, fitness/wellness, fashion and outdoor lifestyle industries.

In her personal life, she enjoys surfing, camping out of her self-built van, gathering passport stamps in her travels, reading way too much into her astrological natal chart (probably yours too), weightlifting, motorcycling, horsemanship, freediving at the channel islands and photography.
