About Me

I have completed my training and am looking for coaching hours to complete my certification. I am experienced in working with people in a confidential way. I can work with anyone but have interest in working with technical professionals. Consultation is free, as are the first 3 sessions booked. There is no obligation to continue after those 3 sessions.

My background includes:

Fellow of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and Chartered Engineer

PhD in Astrophysics

30+ years in Research and Engineering in acadaemia and high-tech industry

Technical Director in a successful SME exit

Industry Advisor for startups, currently working with Tactun Engineering

15 years of experience successfully leading multi-disciplinary teams, developing products, and people.

NLP practitioner

I understand the pressures of having a career while juggling family and other commitments. I understand what it actually takes to deliver consistently while staying intact.

I have transitioned successfully many times in my career, inclluding career break to get my PhD and then leaving the corporate world to build a business providing therapy and coaching. I now use all of that experience to help others gain clarity, confidence and momentum through tailored coaching.

The difference my clients tell me they notice most: I don't need things explained twice, and I don't sell magic. The work is grounded, evidence-led and built around the way people's minds actually work.

Specialism

I specialise in helping others manage Career transitions, promotions, pivots and complete changes.

I have experience in dealing with anxiety, stress and burnout and have been a therapist for 3 years helping others with anxiety, addiction and performance issues.
