"My ancestors endowed me with vision, leadership, and perseverance -qualities that guide both my personal and professional life.
It is my purpose to impart wisdom and serve the greater good with integrity and commitment.
I aim to contribute to fostering love and awareness in the world."
​
"I am profoundly grateful to my parents for their unconditional love and extraordinary gifts. My mother, with her poetic sensibility and remarkable resilience, and my father, with his extraordinary capacity for growth, have shown me that true intelligence encompasses both mind and heart. Through them, I have learned the value of curiosity beyond what is visible, the guiding power of symbols, the joy and passion of life’s vibrant moments, and the blessing of calm. They have taught me the courage to dream beyond what seems possible and to trust in the divine timing of life; the power of rising after failure and trying again; that the mind can be disciplined with simplicity, yet the heart remains the center of clarity and guidance. I have witnessed the beauty of friendships and the richness of large family gatherings around the table, where wisdom is shared, tranquility is found, fire is ignited, and roots are connected beyond time and space. Their example of generosity, forgiveness, joy, sustaining oneself and others, order, gratitude, and noble conduct continues to inspire me. Respect, honor, and growth are their guiding principles - for all this, I am deeply grateful.
​
My sincere thanks to my children for their unwavering support. Their encouragement continually motivates me to grow and strive to be better. May their kindness, creativity and gifts be richly rewarded. I am deeply grateful to the father of my children and to his parents and family for the countless ways they supported my journey. I honor him and the wisdom he has shared, which has enriched my life and that of my children."​

"I would also like to express my heartfelt gratitude to all those I carry with love in my heart - those who supported me during moments of great change and transition, who held space for me, offered guidance, and shared generous advice. Thank you for your care, your patience, and your presence. To my dear friends, thank you for seeing me in all my light and for being so compassionate with my foolishness, for witnessing my sowing, blossoming and harvesting, for being there, in my closures and in my new rebirths. Thank you for your respect, honesty and trust.
​
I am deeply grateful to the people and experiences that supported my growth during pivotal moments of my life. Their presence and guidance helped me cultivate discernment, ethical clarity, and a grounded sense of direction. These experiences inform my work not as doctrine or lineage, but as lived understanding.
​
To all those I’ve crossed paths with, whether for a brief moment or over years, may you always be surrounded by beauty and abundance. I am thankful for the lessons and perspectives you’ve shared, which have expanded my vision and deepened my sense of harmony and balance. Your compassion, love, and creativity are deeply appreciated."

With deep respect and gratitude,
