The knowledge I have acquired along my path has allowed me to dive deeply into self-knowledge and coexistence relationships. My work within the juvenile justice system and in conflict mediation, along with practices of self-knowledge, allowed me to understand that even in complex situations, with a lot of tension and disagreement, it is possible to establish dialogues and agreements where diversity is welcomed and respected.

As such, I create safe spaces to talk about sensitive issues with an approach that invokes our humanity and greater connection. By working with different publics, from girls in situations of high vulnerability and risk to company presidents, I have acquired the ability to translate the same concept and needs into a language of simple understanding. Every successful dialogue leads to action and change, so I also help facilitate the development and execution of plans in a more creative and assertive way.
