What do you like about working with our clients?
When I was little, I had an open cupboard full of dolls. I meticulously positioned each of them so they could all see my blackboard on the other side of the room. Every day, I would spend hours teaching them something and facilitating imaginary workshops.
This love of teaching and learning has continued into my work today. I love interacting with bright, talented people from all over the world! As we share our knowledge and learn from each other, our understanding continues to grow.
As Alvin Toffler said: "The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn."
What are some fun facts about you?
- I tied the knot in Las Vegas after attending a Sales Conference, with Elvis officiating the ceremony.
- One of my most challenging yet proudest professional experiences was speaking at a #womenwilllead conference for 1,500 women in Medellín, despite Spanish not being my first language.
- My lifelong dream of being a ballerina came true when I performed as a gypsy in 'Dom Quixote' at a well-known theater in São Paulo. It was priceless to see the radiant and awestruck faces of my two daughters in the audience.
