Personal Info:

I live in Chudleigh with my husband and dog, Hiccup. I try my best to spend as much time enjoying all the wonderful things Devon has to offer, exploring Dartmoor or swimming in the rivers and sea.

Prior to becoming a coach, I spent most of my career as an equine vet, driving around the country caring for horses, ponies and donkeys. Whilst I loved many aspects of my work as a vet, I started to recognise it was supporting the humans, both clients and colleagues, that became my real passion. Several significant life events than acted as a catalyst to shift my direction towards coaching.

Whilst doing my coaching diploma I also worked for the vet school at Surrey University and became an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. Through this I gained valuable insight into how adults learn.

Other Work:

I volunteer as a member of the British Equine Veterinary Association’s council and support their development with wellbeing, leadership and EDI. This includes helping them develop and run their group coaching programme.

I’m a course facilitator for Breast Cancer Now, running their Moving Forward courses for people who have been through primary breast cancer treatment.

I’ve developed and run the first group coaching programme for the British Veterinary Chronic Illness Support CIC, supporting members of the veterinary profession to navigate the challenges posed by chronic illness whether physical or mental including neurodivergence.
