I’ve always been interested
in the story behind the story.

being born on the island of Guernsey, far from the mainland.
I set sail from those shores as a teenager to find the bigger story—
or so my narrative goes.
After decades in international human rights, community development and adult learning, I trained as a coach some 17 years ago.
I now work with leaders and professionals at points of pressure, transition and growth.
I’m an ICF PCC coach, trained in Time to Think, DISC and Strengths.
I work through coaching, facilitation, expressive writing and photo journaling.
Clients have included Clore Social Leadership, the British Council, FourthRev,
and pro bono work with the NHS Leadership Academy and the Humanitarian Coaching Network.
I’m also a published creative writer and workshop leader.
