My curiosity about human potential goes back a long way. I first encountered the world of psychology during my pre-university studies, and the question that captivated me 20 years ago still drives my work today: What allows people to thrive?

I grew up in England before moving to Sydney, Paris and finally Amsterdam, where I’ve now been for ten years. In those ten years I changed industries three times, always convinced the next environment would be the one where everything clicked. What I learnt is that the fulfillment and success I was looking for was available to me all along. I just didn’t have the tools or the perspective to live it.

That insight shapes everything I do as a coach. I partner with professionals to help them reconnect with what matters to them, supporting them to create wholeness, aliveness, and the moments of deep fulfillment and success that come with it. I draw on a range of psychological fields and philosophical frameworks to bring depth and a unique direction to each client’s journey toward self-actualization.

Alongside my private practice, I work in Learning & Development co-creating, designing and facilitating learning programs, and managing their implementation end to end. It’s the same work at a different scale helping people and organisations grow into more of their potential.

As Member of the Board and Learning & Development Director, my intention is to balance continuity with innovation, preserving what has worked well before my term while creating space for more celebration, connection and new forms of learning within our community. My vision is to build a learning ecosystem that nurtures coaches at every stage of their professional journey, strengthens inclusion and belonging, and delivers high-impact education that supports professional progression and coaching excellence.
