Why Work With Me?
Take advantage of my years of developing strategy and save yourself time and money.
I built my foundation with a Masters in Marketing from Manchester University’s School of Management, then spent many years agency-side as a freelance Strategist, working with some of the brightest strategy experts in top London agencies like Ogilvy.
Beyond agencies, I've worked client-side in leadership and management teams, learning first hand what drives business success. I've trained with world-class strategists with Hoala, qualified as a Business Consultant and Coach with Evercoach (realising I prefer consulting over coaching!) and have helped many clients lead with clarity and confidence.
All of this experience has given me a unique advantage - spotting patterns and essentials separating thriving businesses from struggling ones.
At the heart of it all? The Strategic Essence®.
I’ve spent years distilling the most powerful elements of strategy into a proven framework that helps CEOs find out 'what they don't know that they don't know' so they can align people, vision and priorities to create more value.
It’s tried and tested. And I’m excited to help you use it to push forward with clarity and confidence.

I really recommend her process. Once you have it nailed, decision making, strategy, everything flows much easier. I found her sessions really powerful. I strongly recommend"
