My Core Expertise

Transform Feelings of Fear and Doubt to Clarity, Direction and Freedom

I firmly believe that we create our reality – how we manage our thoughts, the way in which we engage with others, and every action that we take or dismiss. Our mindset drives our performance and subconsciously, it impacts our ability to feel satisfaction and pride, or stifled and stressed.

From my own corporate career, as an expatriate living in foreign cultures, a parent, and an entrepreneur – I witness the full spectrum – people who live with vitality and seek their full potential, and others who live within the confines of what’s comfortable yet complaining about ‘life’.

I believe it’s in us to adapt to life’s changes.

It’s the smart person and leader who steps forward to ask for help – they know they want to do better. And that’s why I am a tough business coach; it is the best way to unlock your potential.

I work with engineers, product developers, designers, HR professionals, Individual Contributors, Team Leads and Creative Directors, making an impact to the leadership bench at these organizations:
