For 20 years I have been developing leaders though coaching, training and facilitation.

At the University of Toronto, I was the Associate Director of the Troost Institute for Leadership Education in Engineering. I helped technically-oriented people become effective people-leaders. I led a team of 6 staff and convened 14 academic professors. I know first-hand how rewarding and challenging it can be to lead.

At Western University, my work is exclusively with people-leaders. I am privileged to bring communities of leaders together for learning and conversation that inspires their ongoing growth and impact. I have created and delivered customized professional education for Women in Capital Markets, Toronto Hydro, and the University of Toronto’s OPTIONS program among others. I enjoy working with leaders from various sectors including corporate, higher education and not for profit.

I received coach training from the College of Executive Coaching and I specialize in emotional intelligence, team leadership, and helping leaders to discover and reconnect with purpose. Values that guide my work include compassion, creativity, equity & inclusion, generosity, and integrity. I believe that leader wellbeing is essential to organizational success.

I have 35 years of international experience in the biopharma industry in various global and operational CMC roles and leadership positions. As a leader, I have successfully guided cross-functional, international teams in product development and registration, Rebif® Life Cycle Management, Process Control Strategy Development, Process Validation, Quality by Design, and Quality Control. I have also been involved in many reorganization projects, supporting the teams with content, facilitation, and coaching input.

I have been involved in creative leadership development since 2015 and have led a collective leadership development program for 140 leaders in middle-management positions for three years.

My leadership and coaching style is down-to-earth, authentic, pragmatic, and transparent, with a touch of humour. This unique blend fosters psychological safety, trust, and empowerment, ensuring a supportive and productive work environment.

As one of the Top 15 Coaches in Zug in 2024, nominated by Influence Digest Media, and as a Leadership Circle® Certified Practitioner, my clients are in good hands.
I firmly believe in psychological safety, trust, and transparency.
