About:

Curious mind, big heart, and a knack for turning “aha!” moments into movement.

With a background in Philosophy, Human Development and a love for pushing limits - whether underwater as a Freediver or on land as a Movement Coach - I help people connect body, mind, and emotions.

Expect depth, playfulness, and a touch of mischief in every session!
