My passion is to design effective and resilient education that stands the test of time. It is with this vision that I founded our Studio - StudioBlended. My signature is that I love to create quality products, am inventive within limitations, a pragmatic idealist, a pedagogue and a strategic thinker who believes in agile teamwork.

As a qualified senior advisor I advise course and degree coordinators on curriculum design and content development. I am passionate about teachers, teaching - and simplicity. The Studio is Europe-oriented and actively engages with European initiatives. We also partner with Central and Latin America. 

I am an experienced educational professional, with a Master of Arts degree (MAEd) in International and Bilingual Education and Teaching, complemented with state-of-the-art trainings in blended and remote education set up. Alongside my academic work I have performed well as a project lead, with an ongoing demonstrated history in program management, leading agile teams and delivering high quality outcomes. Being an entrepreneur demands that I am financially and administratively fluent – and able to work systematically in any given set up. I am a flexible professional with strong intercultural communication and interpersonal skills both in a remote and face to face context.

As independent senior advisor, I also supervise, coach and mentor bachelor and master students with their final thesis. The students are referred to me by several Europe-based entrepreneurial clients or approach me directly. This work demonstrates my agility to straddle the ideological process of helping a new generation to graduate within the high-quality criteria of education and the commercial side of meeting client deliverables. I enjoys offering a bespoke learning journey to every single student. As part of my key responsibilities I work independently and systematically, am able to adapt to a diversity of clients, offer a healthy commercial approach, deal with the pressure of deadlines and champion a solution-oriented approach.
