About me

Me walking two dogs in springtime France

After seven years in the non-profit sector working in strategy, communications, and capacity development, I started coding, diving into data sciences, and learning design tricks because I finally realised that they represent everything I love doing: strategy, design, making and fixing things, problem-solving, facilitation and team-work… all with the goal of helping people be more efficient, effective, and ultimately (I hope) happy.

If you’re working on a project and need a solid all-rounder who cares about quality to join your team, don’t hesitate to get in touch with me.

I’m an avid believer in an agile approach to developing complex projects, and happily admit and discuss when something could be done better, even with my own code :).

I have an “engineering brain” and also bring a background in Marketing, Strategy and Finance to the table, and have worked primarily in fundraising, communications, strategy, capacity-building, and teaching. I’ve lived and worked on four continents and am fully fluent in English, French, and Spanish. I can survive in Portuguese, Italian, and Japanese, but am not fluent in them. If the need should arise for a project, I can weld (TIG, MIG), wrench, do woodwork, and I understand basic electronics, IOT, etc.
