Tigrilla's journey began in a polyethnic childhood. She earned a degree in music and electrical engineering, entering high-tech via RealNetworks and Microsoft in the early days of the internet.

The desire to escape the confines of the corporate world proved too strong, and Tigrilla soon began following her own spiritual path. She co-owned a circus, produced intentional dance events, taught Kabbalah, and even toured with Cirque du Soleil.

Today, she is a Nature-Inspired Mentor and Leadership Coach. Her studies focus on Plant Intelligence, the Effects of Plant Music on Human Health, Social Innovation, and EcoSystem Thinking.

Tigrilla has the honor of being a Damanhur citizen in Italy — one of the largest spiritual eco-communities in the world.

Her roots are firmly planted in the arts, communication, and the avant-garde. Tigrilla uses her expertise to empower creatives, healers, and entrepreneurs who love nature to take action with confidence to become the conscious leaders of their lives. She is an influential speaker and teacher, running courses on reconnection with the plant kingdom to consciously discover the elements of Life that nourish you to flourish.

Always eager to learn, she studied with some of the greatest minds in bio-inspired sciences, gaining a masters degree in Futuro Vegetale (Vegetal Future): plants, social innovation, design under Stefano Mancuso, University of Florence. She has also studied Biomimicry for Social Innovation and Product Development. Tigrilla is a board member of the BAM Foundation and advisor to the BAM Institute for Civic BioDesign.

Tigrilla is a World Ambassador for Plant Intelligence and champions connection to nature as the basis for long-term health, happiness, and success. www.tigrillagardenia.com
