I spent the first 20 years of my career climbing the ranks of large consulting and technology firms. I started off in my original home of Detroit, and from there my consulting, sales, and leadership roles at Arthur Andersen, Capgemini, and Meta (to name a few) took me around the world several times before I eventually settled in London in 2012.

Along the way, I wrestled with my own versions of perfectionism and Imposter Syndrome. As I learned to choose a different way of operating, I became fascinated in how our inner world - our beliefs, emotional patterns, and levels of self-trust - has the power to determine the trajectory of our careers, businesses, and lives. Supporting others to access the clarity and capability they already carried became the most meaningful part of every role I held, and ultimately led me to train and work as a leadership coach.

After many years operating at pace, my family and I made the conscious (and somewhat crazy!) decision to step back from life as we knew it and circumnavigate the world by sailboat. Living with daily, real-world uncertainty was a profoundly meaningful experience that for me, stripped leadership back to its essentials and clarified what truly matters when familiar maps no longer apply.

Today, my practice is centred on self-leadership: the inner work that shapes how we think, decide, and show up when the path ahead isn’t clear. Through speaking, writing (my first book is in the works!), and a small number of highly intentional coaching partnerships, I now support senior female leaders and organisations navigating pivotal moments of change.

Beyond coaching, speaking, writing, and entrepreneuring, I’m most at home when I’m sailing, travelling, and saying yes to new experiences that stretch how I see the world.

I live in London with my husband and our nine-year-old son.
