Hello and welcome...

As a former chemical engineer with international experience at ICI, DuPont and Zeneca, I bring a refreshing perspective to leadership development and success.

With over 20 years of experience developing industry leaders and their teams, I have coached SMEs and global corporations, consistently delivering results that go beyond technology boundaries, including petrochemicals, oil and gas, biopharmaceuticals, specialty chemicals, manufacturing, mining, broadcasting, and automotive.

From a working-class background in Glasgow’s council tenements, my work is inspired by my own transformative personal journey which gave me the courage to change my life and career. Developing my natural people skills as an empath and intuitive, I retrained as a coach, founded a niche leadership consultancy in 2002, became an award-winning speaker and retreat leader, a podcaster and poet.

As an experienced Vipassana meditator with over 10 years of daily practice and annual silent retreats, I incorporate mindfulness into my work, supported by over 20 years daily journaling and dream work. 

Besides people, my other passions are horses and poetry. I live between Edinburgh and Granada, where I enjoy horse riding in Las Alpujarras and honing my Spanish language skills. My poetry has appeared in various publications and I aspire to write in Spanish one day!
