With a diverse educational and professional background, Eliza has been transitioning through theatre, storytelling, education, and marketing. Driving transformation in the workplace environment and helping to grow a healthy organizational culture is one of her main goals. What drives her is to encourage and empower people to always do their best in a friendly way and respecting their interests and diversity. Meditation and hanging out with friends are her favorite pursuit for joyfulness.  

Vice President

 An education enthusiast, communications advocate, curious by nature, and problem-solver by choice. She led a 50-strong team responsible for 2,000 students in their High School senior year, and from that experience, she learned that knowledge has to be shared and applied. From her Ph.D. in Linguistics and her 15-year teaching work, she learned how to deal with Time Management, Organization, and Human Behaviour. She enjoys gardening and reading about Social Sciences and Linguistics in her free time.

Running and spending time with her family and friends are her favorite hobbies. 

Partnership Director

 Raymond believes that life has many unforeseen detours which are inevitable. Instead of resenting them, he expects and accepts them. He is a very flexible person who can stay productive while enjoying the challenges that come his way. He loves to learn and enjoys the process of learning different things and aspects of life. He is taking a Post-Degree in Business Administration to increase his knowledge and skillset from his bachelor’s degree in Business.

Marketing Director

  Eve is a Communication professional in constant search for learning experiences. At first, she was intimidated by the idea of Project Management, but that same feeling drove her to accept the challenge.

Having a lot on her plate, Eve finds her inner balance by practicing regular exercises and in meditation sessions.

Design Director

 An architect and interior designer who believes a single smile can change lots of things. Besides the joy of transforming people's ideas into drawings, a recently found passion for teaching came along, and her willingness to be the best she can for others and herself is stronger than ever.  Also, a puppy lover, Bella's always ready to cuddle dogs on her way and share this love with those who need it.
