Most of my life has been split between two continents: Europe and North America. I've lived and worked in several European countries and a number of U.S. states. I've been a student, a university lecturer, a business owner, a parent, a homeowner, and more on both continents. And in between, I've packed up my home several times and shipped it across the Atlantic. 

 

Over the years, I have gained deep insights into personal and professional life on both continents - and what it takes to be successful. The challenges faced by international leaders and entrepreneurs as they navigate U.S. business environments have become my personal passion and my professional focus.​​ They are the reason why I founded TransAtlantic Coaching & Training.

 

Today, I combine my academic background, my passion for teaching, and my business experience to develop highly customized programs for clients.

​

• My academic background: I have a Master's Degree in German, English, and Spanish translation and a Doctoral Degree focused on the role of language and culture in international business.

• My passion for teaching: I have taught at Austrian and American universities and trained corporate clients.

• My business experience: I have worked (and still do) in our family company in the United States, and I run my own Florida-based business.

​​

My goal is to help my clients - entrepreneurs, leaders, and emerging leaders from different parts of the world - strengthen the skills and strategies they need to communicate more confidently and effectively, forge great relationships, and build profitable ventures in the U.S.
