My main passion is to explore how spirituality, scientific knowledge and creativity can combine to help us develop and experiment building sustainable and plentiful human societies. With roots in Africa and Europe, I am aware that the diversity of voices and inputs is vital to this process. I am a neuroscientist, educator, social scientist and artist with extensive experience in scientific research and teaching art and sciences to all ages from toddlers to adults.  I was born in Ethiopia where I spent my childhood years and lived in Kenya, France, the Netherlands and now Bosnia and Herzegovina where, with my husband, we raised our two children who are now adults.
