Ich bin ein Belina.
I am part US-American, part French, and I lived in England for 15 years. This makes me effectively Canadian.
Giggling
I giggle a lot. Mostly because I love my work.
For 10 years, I have been teach a loving form of stand up comedy to people working on social or environmental issues. Participants include climate scientists, environmental Phds, humanitarian workers, mums with a great insight on parenting, and many others.
I help them:

- engage others in meaningful, memorable, and delightful ways
- not burn out when we need them most
with
I help people working on meaningful, complex projects within or across organisations to collaborate and communicate more effectively, wisely, and delightfully.
