Founder
Experience of almost 10 years as a labor inspector, preceded by a diverse career which includes directing a people management department, practice as a lawyer on labor rights, as well as work on social rights both at an academic center and an NGO, together with professional training provided to professionals from different sectors, allowed me to meet thousands of professionals and be aware of the challenges and struggles of professionals and teams.
Over my professional path, I had the chance to meet and interview hundreds of workers and meet entrepreneurs and companies from the inside, contacted leaders, trade unions, representatives of companies and organizations, from small businesses to corporations, which offered me the business perspective from all angles.
More recently, I have combined an academic and technical background in law, labour law and gender equality, with trainings on other skills such as coaching, mentoring, systemic management, Business Model You, organizational constellations, serious games and mindfulness, which have allowed me to access what lies beneath work, what brings well-being and what takes it away, and with that knowledge I have gathered a set of tools to achieve greater satisfaction at work. Today and with all this knowledge and experience, together with people and organizations, I facilitate the process of diagnosing the challenges and issues, testing possibilities and finding solutions and pathways, empowering people and teams for better performance and wellbeing at work.
I am now also back to an old passion, partnering with Más Diversity offering trainings, workshops and mentoring in diversity and inclusion, unconscious bias, female leadership and other topics related.
As an experienced trainer and facilitator, I am continuously in search for new tools, methods and resources to provide a more interactive and playful experience to clients and trainees.
Above all I am passionate about people and I am motivated to facilitated their growth and empowerment.

Expert on Creativity | Facilitator
Design Thinker
Master Degree in industrial design with more than 20 years of experience as a Designer, in the areas of product, graphic and web design, as creative director, design manager and marketing director. 10 years of experience as a professor in Product Design and Graphic Design courses in the areas of design and design methodologies. I took part in thousands of projects that also correspond to thousands of solutions to practical problems of production, communication, interaction and user experience, which allowed me to develop creative, analytical, management and planning skills and to implement efficient solutions adapted to the contexts where they were inserted in.
Along with design, I have developed a career as a visual artist, a desire that had always been latent. Art has allowed me to come into contact with my Being, entering the spiritual field, which brought about a change of perspective and the will to explore even more the creative tools, free from the social and economic impositions inherent to the design process and communication, and at the same time explore and find new paths and new possible methods to apply to problem solving at all areas.All problems arise from this complex constantly expanding being, the "I".
