I am a pharmaceutical leader and neurodiversity coach working at the intersection of science, leadership, and lived experience.

For over a decade, I have worked in global biotech and CDMO environments, leading Quality Control and manufacturing support functions, delivering large transformation programmes, and driving operational excellence within complex, highly regulated systems. I understand performance, accountability, and what it takes to lead in high-pressure environments.

Alongside my corporate career, I founded NeuroSpacious, a coaching practice dedicated to supporting neurodivergent professionals in the workplace. I bring several years of coaching experience in high demanding settings. My work focuses on helping individuals build sustainable systems that work with their brains rather than against them.

As someone with ADHD, I know the invisible load of masking, burnout cycles, hyperfocus, and executive function challenges. I also know the strengths that come with a different cognitive profile. My coaching model, NeuroSpacious, is rooted in neuroscience, behavioural science, and workplace psychology. It guides individuals to regulate, clarify, act, and recover so they can rediscover who they are beneath years of adaptation and pressure.

My mission is to help neurodivergent individuals thrive at work, by understanding their nervous system, their patterns, and their strengths. When people reconnect with how their brain actually works, performance becomes sustainable and identity becomes clearer.

I speak about neurodiversity, inclusive leadership, sustainable productivity, and psychological safety, translating research into practical strategies leaders and teams can apply immediately.

Sono una leader nel settore farmaceutico e una neurodiversity coach. Lavoro all’intersezione tra scienza, leadership ed esperienza vissuta.

Da oltre dieci anni opero in contesti biotech e CDMO globali, guidando funzioni di Quality Control e Manufacturing Support, coordinando programmi di trasformazione su larga scala e promuovendo l’eccellenza operativa in ambienti complessi e altamente regolamentati. Conosco cosa significa performance, responsabilità e leadership sotto pressione.

Parallelamente alla mia carriera corporate, ho fondato NeuroSpacious, una pratica di coaching dedicata ai professionisti neurodivergenti nel mondo del lavoro. Ho diversi anni di esperienza nel coaching e mi occupo in particolare di ADHD, autismo, dislessia e AuDHD. Il mio lavoro aiuta le persone a costruire sistemi sostenibili che funzionano con il loro cervello, non contro di esso.

Come persona con ADHD, conosco il carico invisibile del masking, i cicli di burnout, l’iperfocus e le difficoltà legate alle funzioni esecutive. Conosco anche i punti di forza che derivano da un profilo cognitivo diverso. Il mio modello di coaching, NeuroSpacious, è radicato nelle neuroscienze, nella scienza comportamentale e nella psicologia del lavoro. Guida le persone attraverso un percorso di regolazione, consapevolezza, azione e recupero, per aiutarle a riscoprire chi sono sotto anni di adattamento e pressione.

La mia missione è aiutare le persone neurodivergenti a prosperare nel lavoro, non cambiando se stesse per adattarsi a sistemi rigidi, ma comprendendo il proprio sistema nervoso, i propri schemi e i propri punti di forza. Quando una persona riconnette con il funzionamento reale del proprio cervello, la performance diventa sostenibile e l’identità si rafforza.

Parlo di neurodiversità, leadership inclusiva, produttività sostenibile e sicurezza psicologica, traducendo la ricerca scientifica in strategie pratiche applicabili immediatamente da leader e team.
