About Me

I am a Professional Certified Coach (PCC ICF), Certified Embodiment Coach, and Master Intelligent Leadership® Coach with 1,500+ coaching hours and 10+ years of international experience in HR, Talent, and Organizational Development. My career spans Latin America, the Caribbean, the Middle East, India, Eastern Europe, Russia, and the United States, where I’ve supported executives, expats, and leadership teams—including leaders from various United Nations agencies—through complex transitions.

I have worked with clients from 30+ countries, bringing a culturally informed and emotionally intelligent approach to help leaders navigate uncertainty, embrace change, and turn strategy into action. I specialize in expat transitions, guiding individuals to adapt to new cultural environments while staying true to their identity. Having lived in 5 countries, I offer firsthand insight into building a fulfilling life and career abroad.

Alongside my coaching work, I consult on talent strategy, cultural alignment, and leadership development. I’ve held senior executive roles in Organizational Development, Talent, and HR at Accedo, Concentrix, and TripleTen, partnering with leadership to design pipelines, empower first-time leaders, and help organizations thrive in fast-changing environments. I am also known for designing curriculum and learning programs from scratch, ensuring alignment with business needs and measurable impact. Often, I’m called in when something urgent must be done but no one is sure what or how.

I’m a faculty member at CoachingUp, teaching ICF-standard coaching programs and mentoring future coaches. I’ve been invited internationally to share my expertise, including at the Universidad Nacional de Jaén in Peru and CESA – Colegio de Estudios Superiores de Administración, one of Colombia’s TOP 2 business schools.

Currently, I serve as Cross-Regional Director at John Mattone Global Inc., leading cultural transformation and executive coaching programs worldwide.
