About me

---

Born in Switzerland, I immigrated with my family to Australia when I was six years old. I call Australia home but I've also lived in Switzerland, Hungary, South Africa and Spain, visited more than 30 other countries and learnt four languages.  I love being with people of all ages, cultures and backgrounds!

I'm passionate about sharing my skills, knowledge and experiences, and have enjoyed being a guest speaker on numerous Australian and international podcasts, and at a variety of team building days, events and conferences in Australia and overseas.

During my professional life I've enjoyed working in a variety of other roles including English teacher, journalist, business mentor, training coordinator and vocational trainer (business, management and leadership) and Success and Wellbeing Services Team Leader/Coach.

In 2015 I published my first book, “Life Salsa: Life Lessons from the Dance Floor”, which is available on Amazon.  (See link below.)

When I'm not working, you might find me meditating in the peace of the early morning, enjoying a glass of red wine with a friend, sitting in a favourite cafe absorbed in a book or walking at the beach at sunset.
