About me
What brought me to coaching
After gaining a degree in Human Sciences in the UK (my home country), I started my working life in Italy before moving to Cologne, Germany where I still live. I was a successful communications trainer and author of training materials then moved to a global automotive company where I worked for twenty years in a wide range of positions. I was always in Human Resources, mainly in Learning and Development, and was the Manager of Learning and Development for the European region.
Over the years, I became an expert in adult learning and development - and the work made sense to me and felt worthwhile. For me, continuous learning is the ultimate ongoing journey that enriches our lives, expands our horizons, and equips us with the tools we need to navigate our ever-changing world.
Just as much as learning new skills, understanding more about ourselves, including our strengths, values, beliefs, and motivations, is part and parcel of personal growth and development.
When I decided to take early retirement in April 2021, stepping out on my own to work as a coach felt like the most natural move in the world for me. I know how much coaching helped me when I was uncertain about where to go next - and now I can support others who are looking to find their path in life.
