I’m a former C‑level commercial leader turned executive breathwork and cognitive performance coach. I work primarily with C‑suite executives and leadership teams to enhance cognitive performance and emotional resilience in high‑stakes environments and decision‑making via executive coaching.

I weave traditional Hatha yoga pranayama with the Oxygen Advantage functional breathing method – so you get practices that are science‑based, time‑tested and immediately usable in daily life.

I focus on functional breathing techniques that build emotional resilience and sharpen cognitive performance and mental clarity, and I actively support my clients with making conscious breathing a habit and integrating it into their day‑to‑day for stress management.

My approach is designed to develop:

• Increased HRV (heart rate variability), enhanced stress management and emotional regulation under pressure; burnout prevention
• Cognitive peak performance — stable access to creativity, intuition, working memory and executive decision‑making, focus and attention

I partner with startup founders, CEOs and senior operators who want reliable, no‑fluff tools for regulating state, sustaining focus and following through without adding complexity to their day to improve leadership performance and productivity.

My formats include 1‑on‑1 executive coaching sessions, corporate workshops, multi‑week corporate breath programs and keynote talks on breath and cognitive performance.

I teach in person in Berlin and online. Every engagement starts with a concise assessment and a plan that fits your calendar, respects confidentiality and gives you clear checkpoints to track progress with measurable outcomes.

My keynotes focus on executive leadership performance, functional breathing, stress resilience, cognitive performance, future mindset and the neuroscience of breath and decision‑making.
