Who’s the crew behind Unsettled?
Michael Youngblood
CEO & Co-Founder
Michael is an adventurer and entrepreneur who fully lives Unsettled’s values and vision across his life. He’s as likely to be found on an Unsettled retreat, behind his laptop, or exploring the world by bike, sailboat, or foot.
Before Unsettled, he was the Managing Editor at Innovations Journal, a publication co-hosted by Harvard, MIT, and George Mason University, where he researched and published on the topic of entrepreneurial solutions to global challenges.
He’s been a storyteller, teacher, and venture builder, but he’s most in a state of flow when he’s mountain biking, sailing, snowboarding, or exploring the wilderness somewhere. He’s a member of Sandbox and a TED Resident. Email Michael.
Clara Mastronardi
Director of Operations
Born and raised in Buenos Aires, Clara is a global soul with a flair for adventure and exploration. Before joining Unsettled, she spent 6 years coordinating and producing events for art fairs, galleries and cultural institutions around Buenos Aires as a passionate leader in the arts. In 2017 she made the move and left her job with the Argentine Ministry of Culture to learn the art of living Unsettled. Her travels took her through Southeast Asia and she returned home and joined Unsettled as a Location Manager, sharing the rich art, culture, and creative scenes of Buenos Aires. She then ran retreats for Unsettled as an Experience Leader in Argentina, Peru and Bali. She recently made Patagonia her new home, where she works remotely as Unsettled’s Director of Operations and spends her spare time hiking, rock climbing, sharing a meal with friends, and tracking down new adventures. Email Clara.
Lynne Scullard (AKA "Scully")
Global Experience Leader
Marco Nigris
Captain
Marco is a high-functioning pirate, and water and wind are his natural habitat. Argentian and Italian, but living in Portugal he’s sailed thousands of miles at sea in the Atlantic, Caribbean, Mediterranean, and Pacific (and kiteboarded worldwide too). He currently owns a sailboat in Ibiza and charters it on the side.
When he’s not sailing or kiting, he works at the intersection of tech and business. He has a background as an engineer and currently works in fintech in Europe.
Unsettled is a global community for those who live and work differently.
