I bring a combination of real-world leadership experience, professional coaching expertise, and a strong foundation in personal development. My career spans technical roles, senior leadership positions, and consultancy work, including time at Microsoft, where I supported and developed individuals and teams in high-performance environments. I am a qualified coach (Level 7) and a Chartered Manager (CMI), with extensive experience mentoring and coaching across a range of settings—from early career development through to senior leadership. I have also contributed to programmes such as The King’s Trust Future Leaders Programme, supporting individuals to build confidence, direction, and resilience. Key skills I bring include: Coaching and mentoring: Helping individuals gain clarity, set meaningful goals, and take practical steps forward Leadership development: Supporting new and experienced leaders to build confidence, communicate effectively, and lead authentically Emotional intelligence and self-awareness: Creating safe environments for reflection, growth, and behavioural change Resilience and wellbeing: Drawing on personal experience of burnout and recovery to support clients managing stress and pressure Communication and facilitation: Delivering structured, engaging sessions that balance empathy with accountability My experience is grounded not only in professional achievements but also in lived experience, navigating career transitions, building and running a business, and rebuilding after challenging periods. This allows me to connect with clients in a genuine and practical way, helping them translate insight into action.
