A bit about me

After studying biochemistry at Oxford University, I explored various career options and have been blessed with a varied career so far. I’ve worked in different fields, like management consulting at PwC, international development, grantmaking, and healthcare. I feel most comfortable when working on projects that aim to support those who are most marginalised in society. Currently, I'm working as a freelancer with a mix of public sector organisations, charities, and other purpose-driven groups. I'm also proud to serve as a Trustee for CSAN.

Throughout my career, I've had fantastic coaching that has helped me handle pivotal work challenges and experiences. I’ve come to a point in my life where I strive to ‘work to live’ rather than ‘live to work’. What this means to me is being clear about where I want to invest the 16 hours or so of waking hours beyond what an employer is asking of me. Thinking about what this means led me to decide to leave employment and become a freelancer. It’s been an amazing journey to date exploring new ways of balancing work and personal priorities, riding the uncertainty waves that are so common in freelance life and finding my flow with differing work and personal joys and challenges.

I explored coaching as a potential new aspect of my freelance portfolio and felt a calling to this profession. In December 2023, I completed five months of fantastic, life-changing training with Coaching Development LTD. Coaching is now a key way in which I serve others to help them in their life journey.

When I'm not working, I love to rollerskate and attend my local church on Sundays. I'm also a big fan of live music, and I always enjoy spending time with my family and friends over a delicious meal.
