Too many smart people in tech are quietly burning out.

I saw it everywhere and eventually, I realised it was happening to me too.

Over six years ago, I hit my own wall.

On paper, things were going well; solid projects, a good reputation, dependable results. But underneath, I was drained and quietly asking myself: Is this how it’s meant to be?

That question changed everything.

I stepped back, paid attention to what was helping and what wasn’t, and began rebuilding from the inside out. Over time, some clear patterns emerged. How I thought, how I acted, what mattered to me, how I managed my energy, and what helped me keep going.

That’s what eventually became the MOVES Framework.

Most of the tech professionals I meet today are smart, capable, and driven, but quietly running on empty.

They’ve done everything right: built strong careers, earned respect, delivered results. Yet the spark that once fuelled them has faded, replaced by restlessness or fatigue.

They don’t need another productivity trick.

They need space to breathe, clarity about what matters, and a way to make progress that lasts.

That’s what my work is about.

The MOVES Framework: Mindset, Ownership, Values, Energy, and Sustain, is a practical, human roadmap for reconnecting with who you are, what matters most, and how you want to show up.

🎤 I speak and work with teams on things people rarely make time for but deeply need:

•	How to stay steady when work keeps changing
•	How to spot burnout early and respond before it takes over
•	How to make progress at work without losing energy or self-trust.

If you’re looking for conversations that are honest, practical, and grounded in real experience, I’m always open to connecting.

If any of this feels familiar, you’re welcome to reach out.

Lead Business Analyst & Coach

You’ve learned to look before you leap.

This isn’t self-doubt. It’s experience.

You used to act fast.

Now you think things through.

You’ve learned that patience can be a strength.

Meaning matters more in the choices you make.

Past decisions didn’t always land as planned.

And you know you deserve more than just momentum.

When I decided to reduce my work pattern as a BA to three days a week, I didn’t send the email straight away.

I gave myself time to process the decision first.

Slowing down isn’t losing momentum. It’s choosing it.

A decision maker and motivational communicator, a coordinator of key performance goals, I have coached individuals and teams to achieve digital change objectives. 

Engaging in key training activities, I am passionate about providing group and individual coaching to prepare business professionals for future business transformation. I also greatly relish new and refreshing challenges, which give me great satisfaction when I resolve issues.

A career performance coach, I deliver bootcamps providing exclusive coaching for technology professionals, enabling them to become more influential and impactful.

Presenting internal and private coaching for technology leaders and managers, I offer strategic support to enable organisational change. I am regularly called upon to deliver high performance coaching and training in value driven business analysis.

I guide business analysts and Technology professionals to move their mindset and businesses from their current position to where they want to be in the future.

As a business transformational coach and business analyst, I excel while leading challenging digital development projects and change initiatives to advance learning and improve business processes. I am a high achiever and impacting leader, with a talent for refining and advancing knowledge in business analysis, project delivery and change management within major organisations, creating and developing people and strategy to improve engagement.

As an imaginative and analytical individual, I can easily visualise the wider business, allowing me to steer change and strategic advancement to achieve results.

The MOVES Framework | Helping mid-career tech professionals move stronger through change | Coach | Speaker | Business Analyst

You assume confidence and certainty are equal.

That belief worked earlier in your career.

You give yourself time to think.

You weigh the cost of taking action.

You consider the trade-offs.

You quietly ask yourself whether it’s worth the effort.

Your focus shifts to doing the right thing, not the loud thing.

This isn’t disloyalty.

This isn’t self-doubt.

It’s discernment.

It’s confidence that no longer needs noise.
