Hello, if you're reading this, you probably know that I help founders and CEOs achieve bigger business results through better people decisions.

Better organization structures. Inclusive cultures. Processes that work. Policies that enable. Pay that inspires. I partner with clients to solve people challenges with clarity, heart, and a bit of boldness.

Over the past 20ish years, I’ve had the privilege of working with leaders across the world in corporate boardrooms (yes, I wore the suit, carried the bag, and sipped the soy cappuccino), and now through my company, doing work that truly lights me up.

In 2020, I traded full-time employment for full-time curiosity and started my solo consulting journey. I began with org design and leadership development, but my path soon widened in the most unexpected ways, like working on gender, culture, and inclusion.

Since then, my work has taken me deeper into culture transformation, employee engagement, policy/process design, and end-to-end HR transformation. I work with clients across industries including nonprofits and social impact organizations and I love experimenting beyond the usual playbook to create real, measurable impact.

A few things I bring to the table:

- Culture and engagement strategy

- Leadership development and coaching

- Competency frameworks and performance management

- People process and policy design

- HR transformation (without the jargon)

- Storytelling that sticks—through writing, facilitation, and copywriting

Outside of consulting, I’m also a speaker and aspiring author, currently working on my second book and a few ghostwriting projects. And when I’m not obsessing over org charts or team dynamics, I’m either rescuing animals, giving away books (211 out of 10,000 so far), or enjoying the world’s most important job, that of being a dad to my incredible daughter.

If you believe people are the heart of your organization, and want to make that more than a tagline, let’s chat over a real or virtual coffee.

In the wise words of Henry Ford, 'Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young.' This proverb encapsulates the philosophy that guides my professional journey.

With an extensive background spanning over 15 years in management education, learning and development, as well as more than three years dedicated to coaching, I am perpetually amazed by the untapped potential within each of us, just waiting to be unleashed through thoughtful guidance and mentorship.

My career has been a rich tapestry of roles—ranging from B-school educator to trainer, facilitator, and now, a specialized coach. I have had the privilege of designing and delivering transformative programs both domestically and globally, catering to varied learning environments both in-person and virtual.

Leveraging this multifaceted experience, I currently focus on empowering managers and leaders, equipping them with the skills they require to excel in their forthcoming roles. As both a seasoned professional and a mother, I possess an empathetic understanding of the unique challenges faced by working women, thereby specializing in Women's Leadership Coaching.

Should your organization be in search of fostering a coaching culture, or wish to introduce individual or group coaching initiatives, I would be delighted to collaborate in devising solutions that are bespoke to your organizational needs.
