The 35 years of my professional career have always been linked to the accompaniment and management of people.

Academic Background

I have a Degree in Nursing (1988) and a Degree in Business Psychology (1993) from the University of Barcelona. In the business field, I completed the Management Development Programme PDD, at IESE Business School (2003), I am certified as Executive Coach by ICF (2010) with PCC level, Team Coach by ICF (2016), I have an International Master in Leadership and Organisational Coaching from EADA (2013), Emotional Awareness Programme CONEM (2019).

In the area of health, I hold a Master in Food and Nutrition from the University of Barcelona (2022) and am certified as an expert level Nutritional Coach by the Nutritional Coaching Institute (2023).

Professional Experience

My first three years of professional life were spent as a nurse in hospital and primary care and then I transferred, as a psychologist, to the business sector working for 18 years in different global corporations in an international environment in the Retail (Marks & Spencer), Consulting (Hay Group) and Pharmaceutical (Roche Diagnostics) sectors, leading groups within the area of People and Talent. In 2011 I decided to become a freelance professional and started the Executive Coaching and consulting project Dependetu. Since then, I have been working with my clients and also collaborating with major business schools in Barcelona. I am a member of the team of executive coaches at IESE Business School in Barcelona and EADA Business School in Barcelona, which allows me to accompany executives from Europe, America, Africa and Asia in their professional growth, developing my work in English, Spanish and Catalan.

Currently, based on my long experience as a coach and my health background, I also work as a Health Coach consultant in a hospital setting in Barcelona.
