My life and work have always moved between science and art. I hold degrees in biology, anthropology, and music, and later completed a master’s degree in music therapy. For more than three decades, I have explored human behaviour, development, healing, and transformation. Bringing a scientist’s drive to understand together with an artist’s sensitivity to nuance has not always been easy, but their integration has become central to how I see the world.

Movement has been an equally important teacher. I have been a certified Pilates trainer for 30 years, and my long practice of martial arts and modern dance has taught me how essential the body is to our resilience and our capacity to adapt and change. These disciplines have also shown me how deeply we need to be connected to our bodies if our gifts are to find their fullest expression.

Born into a privileged, multicultural family and having lived in several countries, I learned early to navigate different cultures, perspectives, and ways of being. Yet my path also brought many challenges. As a highly sensitive child, conflicting expectations and painful experiences—including being bullied for being different—taught me to doubt my abilities, hide my talents, and make myself small enough to fit in.

Wonderful teachers and mentors, a serious life crisis, and many years of inner work helped me develop self-respect and recognise my sensitivity as a strength rather than a liability. Over time, I also came to understand that my scientific and artistic sides were not opposites, but different ways of knowing.

Out of this work grew the Deep Process Methodology: a way of reading the deeper patterns that shape people and organisations, and of working with those patterns through the body as much as the mind.
