I embrace divergent and convergent thinking and I believe that empathy, curiosity, and focus on human talent is what powers future success and that businesses and services should be designed strategically based on them.Embracing the importance of human interactions and behaviour is key to understanding problems and to finding remarkable ways to solve them.I focus on strategic thinking and I work at the meeting point of business, design and social psychology.
