About me
Kia ora! I am an artist and coach with a background in corporate law and leadership in the non-profit and public sectors.
As an artist, I am riding the wave of a creative revolution that struck in my early 30s after a period of burnout. Art making quickly became an integral part of my life and I now spend a large chunk of my time in the studio exploring my imagination. I am represented by {Suite} Gallery and exhibit regularly around Aotearoa.
As a coach, I work with leaders and professionals looking to tap into their creativity to find more freedom and potential in their working lives. I am built for deep conversation and love connecting with people around the things that matter most to them.
You can find out more about my coaching practice here or contact me directly below.
Before stepping into the creative and coaching worlds, I spent over 15 years practising law—specialising in litigation, international law, and regulatory reform — and in leadership roles in the public sector. I have also served with non-profits both here and overseas, including as a board member and Chair of a national mental health service provider.
I hold a BA in Anthropology and Religion and an LLB (First Class Hons) from Victoria University of Wellington, and an LLM in Environmental Law (with distinction) from New York University, where I studied as a Fulbright Scholar. I trained as a coach through the New Zealand Coaching and Mentoring Centre and am a member of the International Coaching Federation.
