Who am I?

  • urbanist & content creator

  • business developer & project manager

  • moderator & podcast host

with a strong network across the urban development and built environment industries in Denmark and Poland.

In my career I worked for Polish Ministry of Development and Infrastructure, Fix a City Yourself Foundation, Urban Power, Henning Larsen Architects, Urban Partners and collaborated with dozens of industry partners.

In the spring of 2020, at the very beginning of the pandemic, I took the leap of faith and trusted my gut feeling that a microphone and the art of conversation would change my life.

It taught me that hosting a successful podcast is not about talking… but listening.


Little did I know that Urbcast would become one of the most significant achievements of my life.
It not only boosted my career but also allowed me to fulfil my dream of organizing, speaking at, and moderating conferences and panel debates at dozens of events in several countries. And I am excited, hoping that it’s only the beginning.

    During our conversation that we had, I liked that he was looking for the less obvious - more personal - side of architecture. I resonated with the questions about challenges and struggles in an architect’s career. As every young person, starting a career in the search for a professional compass.

    We have met with Marcin whilst recording Urbcast podcast, where I was his guest. The conversation we have had was in-depth, full of challenging questions, backed with research and willingness to explore unchartered territories. Marcin is very enthusiastic and ‘open-minded’ professional and I am personally looking forward to our next collaborations!

    I have known Marcin as a classmate, a colleague, and a friend. I have had many great experiences with Marcin, working with him in the classroom, on competition work, on his self-proclaimed podcast on urbanism, and working with him to establish our own Urban10 collective. He is undoubtedly not only a complete professional but also one of the most enthusiastic people I have had the pleasure to know and work with!

    My conversation with Marcin turned out to be an important milestone in my actions, prompting reflection and openness to new aspects. I had the opportunity to participate in several podcasts, but these were exceptional – they were not monologues, but dialogues, which I believe is the highest value both participants can gain, and it's certainly more interesting for the listeners as well :) I hope that in the future we will have the chance to discuss again, and perhaps even collaborate on other interesting urban projects :) I highly recommend working with Marcin!
