People first. Results you can measure.

    From the delivery room to two founder exits, corporate HR at Fincons Group and stages across Europe: one method. Understand people first, then design systems that scale and prove results with numbers.

    More than HR

    Three dimensions, one standard: I have lived every side of the problems I advise and speak about.

    01

    Founder & builder

    I have built, run and sold companies. I know what hiring, payroll and survival mean, because I have carried them on my own shoulders.

    • Two exits: Smart Sweet and S.Perkolaj
    • Building Resilia and Pulp StarTSup
    02

    Startup advisor

    I help startups turn people strategy into growth: first hires, culture that holds, and an organization ready for the next round.

    • Doctoral research case at NOVA Business School
    • Mentor to founders on hiring and scaling
    03

    Speaker & voice

    I turn complex topics, people, AI and entrepreneurship, into stories audiences remember, on stage and in the press.

    • TEDx Zürich 2023
    • Keynotes and workshops across Europe

    How I work

    The same loop applies whether I advise a startup, run a people project or prepare a keynote.

    1. 01

      Listen

      Interviews, data and on-site observation to find the real problem, not the symptom. A skill I learned as a midwife.

    2. 02

      Measure

      A baseline on the KPIs that matter: time-to-hire, turnover, engagement, growth, cost. Data before opinions.

    3. 03

      Iterate

      Agile sprints, on product and on people: small experiments tested and improved every few weeks.

    4. 04

      Scale

      What works becomes a process, a tool or an AI-first workflow the team owns, so results last after I leave.

    Research

    An Agile HR model for the IT skills gap

    My HR master's thesis, designed and tested on real IT companies. The analysis found a large digital skills gap, high turnover and slow, fragmented HR processes. The proposed Agile HR model, applied, could halve turnover, cut the time to build skills in half and return a three-year ROI of 814%.

    Chapter proposal

    On Both Sides of Loss

    A phenomenological study of reproductive grief from my double perspective as a midwife and as a woman who has experienced loss. The work examines embodied clinical practice, empathy and the institutional silence surrounding healthcare professionals, and proposes practical changes for perinatal care.

    Proposed for a Springer volume on phenomenological bioethics, mental health and perinatal care

    Research proposal

    Resithea: never AI alone

    A research proposal on Resithea as a digital companion for reproductive grief and perinatal well-being. It investigates whether a hybrid AI-and-human model can preserve the relational attention that care requires, combining phenomenological interviews with evidence from pilots.
