PROFILE

I was born in Bogotá, Colombia. My father was German, and my mother is Colombian. My passion for nature started when I was only five years old. I loved to explore the Colombian Wetlands to play and understand the little green frogs. I believe this early connection to nature changed my life entirely. I could spend hours playing and following them like I had never imagined. 
 
My father taught me about J.S Bach, Vivaldi, Mozart, Beethoven and Wagner, so I learned to appreciate good music. Every year, I still love to visit Salzburg, Austria, to close my eyes and reconnect with my musical roots.
 
I went to the German school in Bogota and started to draw and understand art as a way to communicate with children when I was only twelve years old. I used to organize fashion shows for kids at school and make all the arrangements to donate the profits to Children's Non-profit organizations. 
 
When I decided to become a lawyer, I never stopped being an artist. And my love for children and technology grew, when I worked at the Faculty of Law to pay for my studies. Especially when my boss decided to support my Sociology, Law, Children, Technology and Education research, which was based on Comparative law studies. This experience later opened my professional field as an expert on Climate Change Law, Kyoto Protocol and International Business Law. 
 
After travelling for many years and working for the private and public sectors, life allowed me to rediscover my love for nature, children, and art. For this reason, I decided to help the world to become a better place to be using my strengths and my passion for art and sustainability.
 
I am a mother of three boys. After many encounters, I became an official Snake Handler in South Africa to understand and relocate snakes into their natural environment. I wanted to overcome my fears of snakes, so I decided to understand them and their environment.
 
Later in my life, I took a course about animal communication with Anna Breytenbach in South Africa and reconnected with nature like never before in my life. This experience taught me how to believe in my dreams, especially when I met the elephant I was dreaming about back, starting the best nature exploration in my life. 
 
Now I am an international business consultant. An activist. A mother. An artist. A Toy and fashion designer. A writer, Motivational Speaker, and Founder of Generation RE, a movement to REthink about our planet and REconnect with Nature.
 
Also, the Founder of the Magenta Cycle, a business model strategy to inspire entrepreneurs and companies to reconnect with the basics of nature, systems thinking, solidarity, gratitude, and love.
 
I believe we can all become agents of change. We all can contribute to using our strengths for a better world. We all can become leaders; we can help to a happier world. We only need to believe and act with our hearts, respecting the ecosystems.
