About me

I’m Valentina. Swiss by origin, based on the South Pacific coast of Costa Rica, working with clients between here, Berlin and Zürich.

Before AI, I lived a few different lives — creative direction, music, hospitality, coaching. For a long time that mix felt like too many things. Turns out, it was the whole point. I didn’t plan to teach AI. I started building custom AI models for people I was already coaching, watched their faces when it finally clicked, and realized this was the part I loved most.

Most AI today is sold as a mega-machine you can trust with your whole life. A brain replacement. A creativity machine. I disagree, loudly.

The way I see it: AI is a brilliant intern with endless knowledge and zero common sense. You have to brief it properly, explain like it’s the first day, and check its work — otherwise it will hand you beautiful, fluent nonsense. Most people either get frustrated, or worse, take the nonsense seriously.

What I do is get you past that. I build custom AI setups for the way you actually work, and I teach you clear routines — prompts, checks, little routines — so you stop guessing.

If you want someone to do the work for you, or hand you rigid AI theory, I’m not your person. I’m your person if you’re curious, a little impatient with nonsense, and ready to finally make this tool work the way you think.

Not sure if this is for you?

That's usually the right moment to write. Most people who reach out don't know exactly what they need from AI yet — they just know something isn't working. Tell me what that looks like for you. I'll write back in the next 24h.
