Welcome to the Notebook

A little over a year ago, my husband and I decided to follow a long-held dream. We packed up our lives, moved to Venice, and bought an apartment to renovate and call home.

Navigating local bureaucracy, project managing a full structural overhaul through the canals, and building a new life here has been an incredible adventure. But as an Organizational Change Management specialist, it has also been a massive live experiment in human adaptability.

This notebook is a space where I bridge those two worlds. It’s a collection of real-time reflections on community, resilience, and the art of managing transition—proving that whether you are navigating a blind Venetian canal or a complex global corporate restructuring, success always comes down to putting people first.
