About

I believe that what we do for work is not who we are, but how we do it can say a lot about us. I imagine a world where we can truly enjoy our work. When that happens, the energy it creates helps organizations grow, and society to move forward. 🚀 My work with Dauxa is about supporting individuals, teams, and companies as they explore paths toward their next iteration. With a focus on team coaching and professional development for curious minds, I bring over 25 years of experience from places like Apple, Cruïlla Music Festival, Primavera Sound, and Elisava School of Design. 👨🏼‍🎤 I'm a proud multipotentialite with a serious love for pizza. 🍕 Why don't we talk?
