People often ask me,

“How do you do what you do with such enthusiasm for other peoples success?”

The answer is simple, it comes from an inherent need to guide, support and make people great. This stems from a number of places in my life but mostly due to my background and my career in the Military.

Growing up on the outskirts of Cambridge and receiving education from Impington Village College and Cambridge Regional College, I embarked on a challenging journey that led me to join the Armed Forces at the age of 18. Prior to this, I faced mental struggles and was exposed to drugs at a very young age.

Joining the military was the turning point I needed in my life, pushing me to overcome obstacles in some of the most demanding environments around the globe. Serving in Kuwait in 2007, Afghanistan in 2009 and 2013, I dedicated 20 years of my life to serving my country.

One of the highlights of my career was serving as a Troop Commander at the prestigious Royal Military Academy Sandhurst for 6 years, where I facilitated the training of Officer Cadets and mentored my soldiers in becoming the very best version of themselves personally and professionally.

Since 2010, I've been providing coaching and mentorship to military personnel before venturing into establishing my own executive coaching business. I began solely through word of mouth without a website or social media presence. My clientele expanded to include CEOs, COOs, Directors, and Senior Management, while still supporting soldiers transitioning to civilian life and students.

Encountering clients who are facing a range of challenges like academic difficulties, issues in leadership and management, feelings of frustration, lack of motivation, and discontent with their career paths, or adjusting from military to civilian life is a frequent experience. Despite the unique backgrounds they come from, the underlying issues they face are often surprisingly alike. By guiding my clients through such transitions, I'm able to make a long-lasting impact, which frequently shapes the way they approach challenges in their lives.

Throughout my professional journey, I have been honoured with three commendations from high-ranking military officials. While reaching the prestigious position of Warrant Officer was a major milestone, I couldn't shake the feeling of something missing. This led me to make a pivotal decision in 2019 to start a BA (Hons) degree in Business, Management, and Leadership at Portsmouth University. Despite facing personal hurdles like relocating multiple times, going through a divorce, and raising three children, I successfully graduated with First Class honours.

Encouraged by my own resilience, I then pursued advanced studies in Executive Coaching and Mentoring at the master’s level while also maintaining my client base. My approach to everything I do is imbedded with intense passion, unwavering willpower, and relentless determination.

I live between Winchester and Farnham and travel into London regularly to meet with clients. I have three crazy children and a wonderful partner.

Coaching people is incredibly important to me and important to the clients I coach, we believe in the power of it. Over the last 15 years I have seen it personally having profound effects on their lives and on mine.
