About me
With a career spanning financial services and business development, I have worked in banks, financial institutions and alongside entrepreneurs growing their businesses. These experiences have given me a strong understanding of both the corporate environment and the challenges of business growth.
What has remained constant throughout is my passion for people — supporting them to gain clarity, confidence and momentum in business, career and life.
I have formalised my coaching credentials through South African Business Coaches, the International Coaching Federation, EMCC (UK) and COMENSA, alongside a postgraduate degree in Financial Management, a degree in Financial Planning, and certification as a Colour Accounting facilitator.
I would love to hear what has brought you here and explore how I can support you.
