I have coached many incredible creative entrepreneurial startup founders, and I have coached board members, directors, business owners, award winners, celebrities and occasionally teenagers.

If you are considering working with me, the earlier you reach out the better.
About me
I LOVE my job. Every part of it. Ok maybe not doing my GST returns, but in regard to coaching those who aim high and sometimes pay the price for that, I am a pig in mud. I am proud of what I do and so very proud of the achievements of my clients. They blow me away constantly.
I have been coaching since 2002 and it’s my calling. I’m a highly strategic and creative coach who loves nothing more than collaborative brainstorming with my clients through the tricky times and challenges and notching up accomplishments that create pride and fulfilment out of the gate.
I’m professionally trained, accredited and have thousands of coaching hours under my belt. I coach nationally and globally and often find myself prepping workshops on planes, as I am sure many of you do.
I often work under the radar with some of our country’s finest leaders and achievers. I play to win and so do my clients. We win with a smile and compassion of others…always. They bring their smarts and incredible achievements to date along to our meetings and I bring my many years of experience in working with achievers who stand out.
