I'm a social and environmental psychologist, interested in new approaches and methods of looking at the relationship between people and their physical environment. I work with architects, urban planners, anthropologists, sociologists. I run a consulting company that focuses on high-quality diagnosis and interventions in projects related to quality of urban public spaces.

I'm passionate about learning new things - I like the "aha" moment when I realize I suddenly understand something.
