I love creating a space where people and ideas can flourish. In the last years, I discovered the depth of the body and how the different layers of thoughts, feelings, emotions, energies and sensations drive us. The practice of yoga and authentic movement were especially influential for my personal growth and the development of a holistic view. I studied the transformational role of embodiment to provide individual coaching for women experiencing transitions.
Moving together with performing artists became a great way for me to explore interactions and transformation in public spaces. Creating something new drives me and allows me to be creative. In the best case, it involves a team of diverse people implementing ideas and projects together.
I feel at home in many places but besides my origins in Europe, I feel deeply connected to Asia, especially West Asia aka the Middle East. Traveling and staying in these regions gave me a sense of my own past as a European citizen in terms of heritage and our colonial responsibilities. I underwent a personal transformation by widening my limited Western perspectives into new horizons. These experiences include many aspects and especially our cultural and ecological interconnections.
It must be the first time ever that I wait until the third paragraph to mention that I am a woman and a proud feminist. Wherever I go, patriarchy is a common, varying only in different shades. Including a feminist agenda into my work has been a constant companion since my school days. My perspective however developed over the years and I am full-heartedly supporting the notion of postcolonial feminism.
In my work, I use multiple professional roles as an embodiment coach, psychologist, talent guide, project developer, journalist and performance artist . I see it as a privilege to put on different perspectives and having obtained various competencies. They are complementing each other and I love playing and making use of them in an impactful way.
