I believe in a single, driving principle: challenging myself and others to realize our highest potential.
My approach is deeply rooted in three philosophies that guide my practice: Nichiren Buddhism affirms the inherent dignity and limitless potential of every person; Stoicism provides the tools for resilience, clarity, and rational action; and Taoism teaches me to navigate the natural flow of life’s inevitable transitions.
- As a Leadership & Career Transition Coach, I view coaching as an art form—a trusted partnership where I help visionaries turn passion into action.
- As a Mentor, I trust your instincts and favor natural, organic conversations focused on building sustainable capabilities.
- As a Wellbeing Therapist, I cultivate safe, non-judgmental spaces for the deep conversations that lead to inner transformation.
My Journey
With 28 years of experience across the corporate and nonprofit sectors, my career has been defined by a commitment to continuous learning. I began in Finance, but quickly transitioned to Human Resources—recognizing that people are the true engine of any organization’s strategy.
I have designed and led people management and L&D initiatives for diverse organizations, including:
- InterContinental Hotels Group (Holiday Inn)
- Royal Commonwealth Society for the Blind
- LEPRA Health In Action
- Dr. Reddy’s Foundation
My recent work includes curating a wellness program for the aviation sector and a “Women in Leadership” program for a UK-based nonprofit.
