I am currently completing my MSc in Applied Positive Psychology and Coaching Psychology at the University of East London. Combined with my MA in management and years of corporate experience, I am coaching my clients to unlock their potential and grow.
My measure for success is the smile on people’s faces and enthusiasm for their next steps. The best part of my work is seeing people, teams and organisations discover opportunities they didn’t think existed, find motivation to change, grow in the process and thrive on the success they created for themselves.
