Creative Mentoring from the Heart

I've always been drawn to creating and supporting others in their creativity. I started teaching when I was just 13, and over the years, I’ve come to understand that being a teacher, guide, and creative mentor is one of my most meaningful and giving roles in this industry.

For over 25 years, I’ve worked in art, education, and applied creativity, on projects ranging from deeply personal to large-scale artistic collaborations and institutional development. What truly drives me is the joy of helping others find their own way of creating, in ways that feel natural, alive, and uniquely theirs, while connecting with their audience.

Whether you’re an artist developing a new project, part of an organization seeking fresh creative direction, or someone longing to live more creatively, I’m here to support your journey. I dive in fully, bringing curiosity, care, and years of experience to the process.

What inspires me most is the creative potential I see in people. Creativity is one of our most significant human resources, a powerful force for connection, growth, and resilience in our shared world.

Testimonials

Lina made me think in new ways. She was well-prepared for our mentoring sessions with tools for purposeful self-analysis, but she also listened attentively to what I needed in the moment. We also discussed artistic processes and the importance of daring to dream big.

I recommend engaging Lina as your mentor when you want to find the creative artist within you, when you have visions but don’t know where to start, or when you seek clarity on your dreams and ambitions. Lina can help you tell your story.

I speak openly about my dreams, thoughts, feelings, the present, the future, and LIFE, and Lina listens, takes notes, and sees and hears the bigger picture. She advises and points out what is relevant at that particular stage in my career and life.

With all the experience and knowledge Lina has of the industry in several countries, she has an incredible ability to guide you through a creative process, the transformation of your artistry, writing applications, recommending people and networks, and identifying the next step, yes, you name it!
