As a certified Business and Leadership Coach, I'm passionate about building better businesses and through that creating prosperous futures in my community.  I'm dedicated to helping leaders by drawing on 25 years' of global experience to drive growth, foster innovation and effect change.

I work with business owners to give them the success they deserve and the lifestyle they want.  For me, better businesses are ones that make more money through better business systems, better performing teams and better management processes so that the businesses become the assets that give their owners more life!

For over 25 years I've worked globally guiding business improvement across industries.  I have well-honed instincts to lead organizations through change, gained through two Chief Executive roles and my own ownership of four businesses - starting in hospitality and stretching to IT and professional services along the way.

I'm a certified Coach and Speaker with the John Maxwell Team, helping leaders better serve their stakeholders and communities.

In my spare time, I have plenty to keep me out of mischief.  If I'm not playing chess or spending time with family or my local church, you’ll find me in the hills and mountains surrounding Wellington, my home city.
