About me
I am accredited ICF (ACC) experienced coach with a Professional Coach Diploma at ICF Level 2. While I have a law degree I have never practised law, instead spending two decades within legal regulation and professional bodies in England & Wales, and Scotland as a senior executive leader and now CEO.
As a member of the International Coaching Federation, I am committed to upholding the ICF Code of Ethics in my coaching practice where I work with individuals and organisations. Together, we look to unlock growth potential through coaching, drive meaningful cultural change through my consultancy, and embed inclusive strategies that create high-performing, psychologically safe workplaces through learning.
You can listen to more about me in an interview with The Autism Mums Podcast in 2026 here.
“ I have spent my career working to create vibrant, inclusive workplaces where every voice is heard. I bring that purpose and safe space to my coaching practice.”
As an experienced coach and senior leader in the legal and regulatory sector, I understand the complexities of balancing personal challenges with demanding workplaces, while leading diverse teams and developing practical, results-driven strategies that foster inclusion and long-term success.
