About

Having spent two decades as an evaluation consultant, including co-leading one of the UK's largest Policy & Evaluation Units, I understand the challenges of leadership, consultancy, evolving personal identity and the ongoing adjustments that are essential for a healthy and happy work-life. 

​

My passion for coaching stems from a long-standing desire to support others to thrive, personal experience of the transformational impact of coaching and having been a change-agent for much of my career. This inspired me to first train and serve as an internal coach, and later offer independent coaching (and mentoring) as part of a diverse portfolio of roles.

My approach to coaching​

​

My coaching philosophy is inspired by the belief that every individual holds the inherent ability for self-discovery and growth. Through the creation of a safe and trusted space, I create an environment where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings and aspirations freely. This approach enables a deep connection that nurtures authentic development.  

 

Recognising the uniqueness of each individual, I work flexibly and where relevant, employ a variety of blended approaches that are tailored to meet client specific needs. This flexibility ensures that the coaching experience is personalised and resonates with the client’s aspirations and context.

​

Some of my areas of interest​

​

I am passionate about supporting others to reimagine the dynamics of work-life, effectively navigate transitions, and explore the intricate evolution of purpose and identity. Through thought-provoking conversations, I partner with clients to support the reframing of perspectives in these, as well as other areas.

​

Professional qualifications and memberships​

​

I am an Accredited Senior Practitioner of the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC) and a member of both the EMCC and the International Coaching Federation. I hold a Professional Certificate in Executive Coaching from Henley Business School (HBS) and am currently pursuing an MSc in Coaching for Behavioural Change at HBS.​

​

Where else do I spend my time?

 

I currently hold a portfolio of roles, including Executive Coaching & Mentoring, social impact advisory work, and serving as a Non-Executive Director at the Oversight Trust and a Trustee at New Philanthropy Capital.​
