About Me
Hello! I'm Elena Emma, your go-to catalyst for transformation in both personal and professional realms.
​
In my professional journey, I've donned many hats – a CEO, a business consultant, a crisis coach, an academic, and a writer. Each role gives me a unique lens to view the world and understand the mechanics of change.
​
As the founder of Davina Lab, I guide businesses to understand their health better. From startups to established organizations, we provide the diagnostic insights they need to thrive. Alongside, I lead Startup Cielo, a unique virtual incubator dedicated to nurturing businesses at different stages, embracing the spirit of risk-taking across all ages.
​
For the past 19 years, I've been leading Purple Sun House, a venture close to my heart, where I coach individuals navigating personal or professional transitions. Simultaneously, I provide consultative expertise to organizations to streamline their operations and financial matters, enhance culture, and enhance their efficiency.
​
Across the ocean in the US, I co-founded BooXkeeping Corp., providing cutting-edge bookkeeping services and recently branching into franchising.
​
As an Adjunct Professor at prominent business schools in Barcelona, I have the pleasure of guiding budding professionals and entrepreneurs, enriching their understanding of the business world.
Beyond the world of business and education, I am a passionate writer and an emerging artist. Writing gives me a canvas to share my thoughts and experiences, while art helps me express my creativity in a completely different, yet intriguing way.
​
On a personal note, I love the dynamism of change. Whether it's the transitions in a professional journey, the evolution of a startup, or even the changing hues of a sunset – I find beauty and excitement in transformation. In my free time, you can find me exploring the #artpairing movement, creating a blend of poetry and painting that mirrors life's complex beauty.
​
Welcome to my space, a place where we'll explore, innovate, and embrace the transformative power of change together.
