About

I am a seasoned professional with more than 20 years of experience leading transformation, organizational development, and people strategies across global and multicultural environments. Throughout my career, I have worked with organizations in South Africa and internationally to design and implement initiatives that align business strategy, culture, and people for sustainable growth.

As a Certified Life Coach and Predictive Index Specialist, I bring a unique blend of data-driven insights, coaching expertise, and leadership development skills that empower individuals and teams to thrive. My passion lies in helping organizations unlock potential — whether through executive coaching, cultural transformation, or talent optimization.

In addition to my HR and leadership expertise, I hold a certificate in AI for Business, which enables me to bridge the gap between people, technology, and strategy. I am particularly interested in opportunities where human insight and technology converge — such as customer success, client relationship management, AI adoption, and digital transformation.

I have a proven track record in project management, executive engagement, and stakeholder alignment, with extensive experience in remote and cross-border collaboration. I thrive in environments that require cultural sensitivity, adaptability, and forward-thinking problem-solving.

My strengths include:

  • Strategic People & Culture Leadership
  • Client & Stakeholder Relationship Management
  • AI for Business Applications & Workforce Innovation
  • Executive Coaching & Leadership Growth
  • Global HR & Organizational Development
  • Project & Change Management
  • Remote & Multicultural Team Collaboration

I am passionate about building meaningful relationships, enabling transformation, and delivering value that lasts. Whether supporting clients through a transition, guiding leaders to new levels of performance, or helping organizations integrate technology into their strategy, I bring a people-first yet future-focused approach.

I am now expanding my portfolio to include client-facing roles in Customer Success, AI Transformation, and Business Operations, where I can combine my HR expertise, coaching background, and digital skills to drive results.
