I don’t wait for fear to disappear.
I move with it.
And I share the journey so you can too.

About me
Where I grew up
I grew up in a tiny village in Germany — ten houses, one street, a lot of quiet.
My bedroom door had a note in red marker:
“Don’t dream your life — live your dream.”
I didn’t know it back then, but that sentence would become the red thread through everything I’ve ever done.
Paris made me an architect
I moved to Paris with one suitcase, a few euros, and a lot of courage.
I got into architecture school, graduated, and started working in beautiful offices with people from all over the world.
I loved the creativity and the energy.
But after a while, something inside me grew restless.
I wasn’t using all of my talent — the intuitive, emotional side that wanted to create spaces not just for the eyes, but for the soul.
That’s when I started to wonder if architecture could mean something more.
Swann changed me
In 2020, at two years and a half, my son Swann suddenly became ill.
One morning he walked. By afternoon, he couldn’t stand.
Hospitals. Uncertainty.
And yet— I never lost faith that one day he will walk again.
Swann’s lesson to the world:
“Joy is a superpower.
Protect your dreams.
Make life magical.”
His courage became my mission.
The shift:
My work isn’t only about healing — it’s about transformation.
I want to share all tools that helped me. So you can build our dream personality and, from there, our dream life.
That’s how Align & Release™ began — as a foundation for everything I’ll keep creating.
