MY background

I’m a neuroscientist with a nearly decade of business experience. That’s why my insight is never just theoretical—I've worked at fast-paced companies and know firsthand business pressures and challenges. Educated in the Nordics; I lived and worked across Europe, so I also bring multicultural lens to what I do.

Credentials

  • PhD in Neuroscience – focus on neuroplasticity, antidepressants, and the stress response 

  • 8 years of project management and leadership experience in fast-paced environments

  • Certified in Coaching Essentials – INSEAD

  • Two years of keynote speaking, workshops, and advisory work across Europe

My story.

I never thought burnout would happen to me.

I had the tools: boundaries, mindfulness, a PhD in neuroscience, and years of experience in high-pressure roles.

But none of it mattered when the system itself was broken.

That moment changed everything.

After that happened, I found myself high in the Himalayas, recovering from something I couldn’t outsmart. The air was thin, the landscape vast—but one question kept circling in my mind:

How did this happen, even with all the tools?

To find the answer, I dug into the neuroscience, organizational psychology, and the biology of stress and resilience. What I found was both simple and sobering:

The way we work often goes against how human brains and bodies actually function.

We reward speed, output, and constant availability while ignoring the biological foundations of real productivity and long-term performance. And then we wonder why top performers disengage, why absenteeism rises, and why ambitious cultures start to crack.

Today, I speak and consult on how we can work, lead, and live in ways that are both ambitious and sustainable.

With a PhD earned in the Nordics, business experience across global markets, and lived experience throughout Europe, I bring a wide-lens perspective to the the modern pressures we all face. My background combines neuroscience, business operations, and leadership in fast-paced environments.

Whether I’m speaking about performance under pressure, workplace wellbeing, or human side of leadership, my mission is simple:

To make brain science usable.
To help people live and work well—without losing themselves in the process.
