I am a leadership coach and consultant, supporting individuals, teams and organisations to effectively navigate change and develop strong professional relationships. I work with clients across the public sector, higher education, philanthropic foundations, charities and social enterprises. I am accredited as a Senior Practitioner by the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC) and am currently completing a Master’s degree at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust, focused on consulting and leading in organisations. My approach is informed by the systems-psychodynamic model, which engages with what goes on above and below the surface for individuals and teams within their organisational context.

I hold a number of Associate roles, including with the Adam Smith Business School at the University of Glasgow, (where I support MSc Management students to complete practical group projects), and with science-for-impact venture builder Zinc (where I have served as a Volunteer Coach for start-up founders).

I have twenty years of research and strategy experience in the not-for-profit sector, where my work has focused primarily on international policy issues relating to innovation, international development, and migration. I’ve previously held senior management and research roles with leading UK organisations, including Nesta and the Institute for Public Policy Research. Alongside my coaching work, I also offer research and organisational consultancy services, with a focus on leadership, inclusion and innovation.
