Transforming leadership chaos into clarity; I provide strategic support, enabling managers to unlock their full potential. Eager to connect with new professional opportunities.

I’ve built my career by stepping into the unknown—with curiosity, focus, and a drive to help.

Across roles and industries, one thing’s always been true: people come to me when things feel stuck.

Sometimes it’s a process that needs structure. Sometimes it’s a team dynamic that needs clarity. Sometimes it’s just someone needing to feel heard. Whatever the challenge, I bring order, calm, and accountability.

I don’t chase titles or trends. I follow what works—listening deeply, managing complexity, and helping people move forward with confidence.

Helping isn’t a soft skill. It’s how I lead, how I build trust, and how I make work—and people—better.

If you’re navigating change or trying to create something that actually works, I’m here to help.

Let’s figure it out—together.

Soft Build

I have been in tech for over 10 years, building my career by coding, leading, coaching, mentoring, and training.

I now use all these skills to help you level up your tech career.

Most people say that the only way to progress in your tech career is by developing more and more of your technical skills.

I went from a Software Engineer, to Tech Lead, to Product Director in 3 years by doing the reverse and focusing on developing my non-tech skills.

Applying this principle, I have supported more than 500 people at different stages in their tech careers over the past 3 years as a full time Career Coach and Trainer.

If you need help to:
➡ BUILD the self-confidence to go for what you want 
➡ DECIDE where to go next: coding or management?
➡ Get to the next level in your tech career: Senior Developer, Tech Lead, … by building a plan tailored to your current environment.

I am here to help you level up 😊
