EMCC Global Accredited Senior Practitioner
I spent nearly 20 years building my career within financial services, specialising in treasury, liquidity management, front-office currency trading and wealth management.
Along the way, I led teams, developed people and experienced first-hand the opportunities and challenges that come with working in fast-paced, commercially driven organisations.
Those experiences shaped the coach I am today.
I understand the reality of leadership — competing priorities, organisational change, difficult decisions and the pressure to perform, while still bringing your people with you.
Today, I combine that corporate experience with professional coaching expertise to support leaders, professionals and organisations to think differently, build confidence and move forward with greater clarity and purpose.
My approach is collaborative, practical and grounded in genuine curiosity. I don’t believe coaching is about giving people the answers. It’s about creating the space for better thinking — and helping people discover their own.
Promoveo comes from the Latin meaning to move forward. That philosophy sits at the heart of everything I do.
Sometimes, the right conversation is all it takes to unlock what’s next.

How I can help
Coaching and development designed around where you are - and where you want to go.

Executive & Leadership Coaching
Lead with greater clarity, confidence and impact.
Leadership can be demanding. Whether you’re stepping into a new role, navigating change or managing competing priorities, coaching creates the space to step back, think clearly and lead with greater confidence.
Together, we’ll explore what’s happening, challenge assumptions and identify practical ways to strengthen your leadership effectiveness and impact.
My approach is collaborative, practical and grounded in genuine curiosity — helping you move forward while staying true to yourself and the organisation you lead.
Career Coaching
Make thoughtful decisions about what's next.
Life doesn’t always move in a straight line. Whether you’re navigating a significant change, rebuilding confidence, managing competing priorities or simply feeling ready for something different, coaching gives you space to step back, think clearly and decide what comes next.
Together, we’ll explore what matters to you, challenge assumptions that may be holding you back, build on your strengths and turn reflection into practical action — helping you move forward with greater clarity, confidence and purpose.

No matter the challenge, I am here to coach you and help bring about significant positive change.

My Story
Move Forward
My career began in financial services, where I spent more than 20 years working across treasury, liquidity management, front-office currency trading and wealth management. I worked in fast-moving, commercially focused environments where decisions mattered, priorities changed quickly and people were often navigating significant pressure and change.
Along the way, I became increasingly interested in what sits behind performance — how people make decisions, lead others, manage change and find the confidence to take their next step.
That curiosity led me to coaching.
Today, as an EMCC Global Accredited Senior Practitioner, I work with individuals, leaders and organisations to create the space to think differently, gain clarity and turn reflection into meaningful action.
My approach is collaborative, practical and grounded in real-world experience. I don’t believe coaching is about telling people what to do. Often, people already have more of the answers than they realise. The right questions, challenge and space to think can help bring those answers into focus.
Promoveo means “to move forward” in Latin. It reflects what sits at the heart of my work: helping people move forward with greater clarity, confidence and purpose.
