My story
I’ve been on the other side of the conversation.
I spent fifteen years in technology and telecoms, beginning in engineering before moving into technical pre-sales, consulting and leadership. I led an EMEA team at Tektronix and a global solution consulting team of seventeen across four continents at Arieso.
I knew the pressure of being good at the work, being promoted for it, and then being asked to lead differently. When I left in 2015, I began exploring the deeper mechanics of change—in others, and in myself.
That experience still shapes how I work today: with an understanding of professional reality and an interest in the human being within it.
What I believe
Less prescribing.
More understanding.
I work slowly and ask questions that don’t always have an immediate answer. We look underneath the presenting challenge, at how you see yourself, what you trust and what you may be ready to let go of.
This isn’t an unstructured conversation. There is a clear process beneath the work—anchored to your development and the reality of your situation, without becoming a workbook or a formula.

Nature isn’t just a backdrop.
It’s part of the practice.
Time, space and a different quality of thinking. I work online, in person and in the mountains when the work calls for it.
The coaching approach
Understanding the person behind the challenge.
Not a rigid formula. A thoughtful process, shaped around you.
01
Understanding
Explore what is really happening beneath the surface, with curiosity rather than judgement.
02
Perspective
Create space to see your situation differently, and notice possibilities that were harder to see before.
03
Movement
Identify meaningful next steps that fit who you are, what matters to you and the reality you’re in.
Let’s begin with a conversation
Not sure which direction is right for you?
Sometimes the first step is simply having a conversation about where you are and what you would like to change.
