I’m passionate about personal discovery and learning how to overcome challenges through a growth mindset. I enjoy guiding my students to find goals that make them excited about the work that goes into achieving them. My favorite thing about coaching my students is opening their minds to loving the act of learning. The most encouraging thing for me as a Coachbit Coach is to witness my students learning that growth happens when we’re able to look back at our mistakes, and strive to do better in our next attempt. Conscious learning is a student superpower, and I love awakening that in my students! My three core values are: 1) Your dreams can come true, if you’re willing to build the framework for them to materialize. 2) Five minutes or fifty minutes, both can have a huge impact. And 3) Manage your capacity and train your capability for a good working rhythm. My life motto is, “No one in this world can know you better than you know yourself, so take the time to make your own acquaintance.”

• Reading – Literature is my lifeblood and livelihood.
• Watching football and Formula 1 – Any sport is a lesson in analysis, strategy, endurance, and belief in oneself.
• Cooking – It's a basic, everyday skill, which allows me to eat great food while applying my creative process and a healthy dose of chemistry!
• Learning languages – Why stop at only understanding one linguistic faction of the world, when there's so much to learn in the others?
• Animal-rearing – It's a humbling lesson in patience and observation to work with a creature who cannot communicate with you in any language.
