Me in a minute
Following an early career and passion as a chef, I found myself becoming more and more interested in people and how to help them develop and respond to the constantly changing demands of their careers. So in 1997 I retrained as a coach and developer and began working with individuals going through transitions in their working lives. Since then I have found my career immensely rewarding working with groups and individuals as they engage with the different challenges their careers have presented. While my role now often focuses on the more strategic picture of development across the firm, I still find it most rewarding to be working directly with individuals on the many and diverse aspects of their development.
