Sprocket grew up on the tiny island of Lindau in a large lake in the south of Germany.

After studying in Berlin during the final years of the Berlin Wall he moved to Austin, Texas to become a successful entrepreneur & play lots of Ultimate Frisbee.

Frisbee ultimately brought him to Hilo where he fell in love with the Big Island and started the Hawai'i Community Network.

He is involved in the local art and theater scene and one of the core facilitators of conscious dance events in Hawaii.

Sprocket spreads his ideas of universal love and the spirit of Aloha with his stickers, grows organic food and helps to preserve the historic Palace Theater.
