Get to know me
I work with executives, senior and emerging leaders, and highly skilled professionals – people navigating transition, complexity, or demands that challenge them, who care about how they show up, not just what they deliver. They want to grow on their own terms, develop inner resilience, and recognise that lasting change requires something different from pushing harder.
My qualifications
- Executive Coaching (Henley Business School)
- Intercultural Trainer (Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena, interculture.de)
- MSc Cross-Cultural Psychology (Brunel University of London)
- Study of Psychology with major subjects Clinical and Organisational Psychology (Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich)
As part of my ongoing learning, I regularly attend coaching training (e.g. Inner Team, Neuroaffirming Coaching) and undertake supervision.
My background and foundations
My approach to coaching is shaped by two foundations: an academic background in psychology, including Clinical, Organisational and Cross-Cultural Psychology, and more than twenty years of experience inside organisations in the corporate world. I have held strategic and regional marketing management roles in the IT industry, as well as business process management roles in financial services and education. My experience in multinational and multicultural environments provides me with a deep understanding of the demands, complexities, politics, and isolation often associated with leadership roles.
As a German national living in the UK since 2006, I naturally bring an intercultural lens to coaching, which is useful when navigating diverse teams, international stakeholders, or your own experience of working across cultures.
My style
I'm enthusiastic about accompanying people on their growth journey, both personal and professional. What I bring to our work is genuine curiosity about you as a person and your situation, the ability to hold complexity without rushing to fix it, and presence and respect for the pace at which insight and sustainable change emerge.
With me, you'll find a non-judgmental thinking partner who won't rush you towards solutions and will acknowledge your individual journey, creating a safe space encouraging you to explore where you are, fresh perspectives and what may become possible.
