About the Coach

My expertise is built from my experiences in leadership​,​ project management and facilitating meaningful change in complex environments. With over 15 years in the humanitarian and development sectors​,​ I have led projects across Asia and the U.S.​,​ working with diverse cultures and communities. As an ICF-accredited ACC Coach​,​ blending strategic insight with cultural sensitivity, I offer structured, empathetic coaching to empower global professionals, expatriates, returnees, career changers, and humanitarian workers in achieving fulfilment.

What do I offer?
A coaching journey for individuals navigating life changes: relocations, career shifts, identity transitions, who want to feel anchored, confident, and clear again.

What can you expect?
- Find your grounding, reclaim your confidence, and move forward with strength and purpose
- Deep listening and grounded presence
- Strategic clarity and structured steps
- Emotional steadiness and inner confidence
- A partner who holds space and challenges with care

I work with people going through any of these transitions:
- Relocation (expats, returnees, digital nomads, migrants making new roots)
- Career reorientation
- Identity shifts (empty nest, singlehood, turning 40/50/60, post-burnout)
- “Something in me wants to change but I don’t know what”

Certifications & Training:
- ICF Associate Certified Coach (ACC)
- MSc in Humanitarianism, Conflict & Development (University of Bath, UK)
- Certified Enterprise Coach​,​ The MasterCoach Institute​, Singapore
- Certificate in Occupational Coaching (Institute of Training & Occupational Learning ITOL, UK)

- Affiliate member (International Society for Coaching Psychology ISCP, UK)

- Trained in Psychological First Aid, Stress Management & Peace building

My coaching is built on everything I lived in the field: leadership, cultural sensitivity, human understanding, and the belief that everyone has strength waiting to be activated. If you’re in transition, whether it’s a move, a career shift, or a season of uncertainty, I’d love to support you. Let’s walk this chapter together.

When Life Shifts, So Does Our Ikigai
