I call myself an “Ameripean” having lived and worked in America for much of my life and then moved to Brussels in 2000 to embark on a career opportunity I couldn’t pass up. I knew no one and had never travelled to Europe. I ended up staying for 14 years, starting my own coaching and training business and becoming a European citizen. And here I am now living in Brighton UK by the seaside – one of the most beautiful playgrounds on the planet.

I grew up in Olympia, Washington USA and have been an energy junkie since I was a kid. I climbed trees, played baseball and ran like the wind. Moving my body was play for me - it still is! My dad gave me the gift of play and also taught me that anything was possible so I’ve lived my life taking risks and reflecting on the outcomes – both positive and negative as I’ve continued to learn and grow.

I strive to help people from all walks of life become the best versions of themselves - young adults seeking to combine their passions with a career pathway, inexperienced managers and high potentials building their management toolkit, parents struggling with their work/life balance, senior managers and leaders seeking to make a positive difference - and anybody who endeavours to live their life with vitality in a world that doesn’t always support them.

I love what I do and do what I love.
