I specialize in mediation, negotiation and conflict transformation.
I know that life-coaching is a positive way to use my experience, to help change lives for the better.

I know through my work with many individuals and groups internationally that the advanced communication techniques I use make interpersonal relationships more empathetic. It also builds on 'non cognitive' skills such as attention, presencing, will power, strong character and the ability to take calculated risks.

I work with diverse people and situations in order that my clients are able to swiftly respond to the dramatic changes in society, environment and their own circumstances.

For over 10 years I have used my expertise in the field of immigration. Specifically, in conflict situations (for the Italian Ministry of Interior) and lately for victims of trafficking and those who have been exploited sexually or at work.

I am Vice President at Il Lievito, a charity working for the empowerment of people, especially in the area of violence against women and men, bereavement mentoring, the evaluation and support of parents and the legal advise to asylum seekers.

For many years I've been working with people who are internationally renowned for their activism in social justice. This includes Zerbanoo Gifford, author, founder of The ASHA Centre in the UK, International Woman of the Year 2006, former Director of Anti Slavery International and President of the World Zoroastrian Organisation.
I’ve also worked with Prof. Dr. Giovanni Dicran Megighian MDS, MSc(Lon), Professor at The George Washington University (Center for Excellence in Public Leadership CEPL).
