Claudia is of Italian migrant descent. She was born in Australia and until her first years of preschool spoke only Italian. Even though she was very young and had the love and support of her parents, she can still remember what it was like being different to the other children at the creche.

Claudia values her upbringing and experiencing different cultures. She has travelled overseas and offered a home to international students. She cherishes human differences and thrives on learning from others. She is committed to helping people through life's transitions.

Claudia thrives on overcoming challenges. Confronting the question, "What is my purpose in life" steered her to where she is now. Claudia spent many years in the private and public sectors mainly in training and development and human resources. She owned businesses in tourism and transport but says that her career as a coach and writer of people's life stories is perhaps the most liberating journey she has yet embarked on.

Her passion is seeing other people break through boundaries, whether of beliefs, culture, excuses and fears, and other inhibitors that stop people from reaching their potential for freedom.

Claudia is dedicated to learning and to living life to the full.
