Bridging purpose and passion – championing arts & culture to inspire, connect and transform.

I offer services that amplify your philanthropic and social change journeys, ensuring that they have a lasting and meaningful impact. I bring a wealth of experience as a foundation executive director, a former Swiss Foreign Ministry official, a peacebuilder, and an active member of the global venture philanthropy community.

Céline is for sure one of a kind: passionate about social change with a witty intellect, I enjoy her strategic thinking, energetic drive and leadership qualities. We worked several years together at the HD Centre, transitioning from a founder’s organisation specialised in confidential, conflict diplomacy – to a USD 40 M peace-making organisation with global footprint. Years after Céline has left us, she is still part of my close network of women leaders I can rely upon.
