Bio
I am a trainer, facilitator, and coach with extensive experience supporting charities, social enterprises, and mission-driven organisations to achieve their goals. With a background in volunteer management and more than a decade in leadership development, I specialise in helping individuals and teams work effectively, build confidence, and lead with impact.
I design and deliver engaging training on leadership, productivity, and communication, equipping people with the tools they need to thrive in demanding environments. I have worked with boards, served as a trustee, and chaired a board of governors, giving me insight into governance and strategic leadership. Alongside my charity experience, I have managed events of all sizes and worked with private sector organisations, bringing a broad perspective to my work.
As a coach, I support leaders one-to-one to overcome challenges, develop resilience, and create positive change with warmth, clarity, and a solutions-focused approach.
