About

After a long career in television, I was rediscovered in 2019 by a headhunter as a (theater) programmer, and since then I’ve committed 100% to the cultural sector. I bring a lot of energy, passion, and a clear operational, tactical, and strategic vision on the interaction between stage, artist, and audience, along with extensive practical experience, specific knowledge, and a vast network.

I am proactive, creative, inspiring, and a team player with strong stress resilience and a result-driven approach. I enjoy thinking outside the box and connecting people to create meaningful cultural experiences.
