Hi there.

Professionally, I’m a communication consultant, culture transformation facilitator, and leadership coach. I focus my time on helping individuals, teams, and organizations navigate interpersonal dynamics in today’s evolving world of work. Personally, I’m a third-culture kid born in Montréal to Haitian immigrants and raised in Miami, Florida. Adapting to new environments while staying true to myself has been a lifelong practice ground for navigating uncertainty, tension, and reorienting towards my center. I think it’s one of the many callings I have here in the school of life.

Curios Consulting designs tailored learning environments that foster interpersonal and systemic transformation. My work sits at the intersections of interpersonal communication, mindfulness, leadership development, and culture change — and it’s purposefully s l o w. With clients, I explore the root causes of communication challenges, co-design strategies and systems for addressing them, and cultivate practice space for the self-awareness and collective consciousness needed for lasting impact.

One of the questions that has guided my 15+ years of experience thus far is: How can we make space for the complexity of humanity in our workplaces while keeping our shared purpose at the center? Too often, how we work together stifles our ability to find answers to this question. But I believe that the curiosity to interrogate the status quo, a shared consciousness to change maladaptive patterns, and the courage to name hard truths can liberate the way we work—if we’re willing to let them.

I’m in it for the pursuit of freedom, for all of us.

The Details

  • The following guide my approach and allow for connection to be fostered before, during, and after the process of collaboration that occurs with clients.

    1. Curiosity — the strong desire to know or learn something

    2. Consciousness —the fact of awareness by the mind of itself and the world

    3. Courage — the mental or moral strength to venture, persevere, and withstand danger, fear, or difficulty
