My Profile

 I am a University Professor, Psychologist, Coach, and Applied Researcher recognised for advancing evidence-based approaches to workplace wellbeing and organisational sustainability. I have led and contributed to high-impact research, evaluation, and consultancy for funders, policymakers, and organisations seeking practical solutions to system challenges. 


My work is trusted because it combines academic rigour with deep real-world insight, translating evidence into action that delivers measurable value. Clients choose to work with me for my ability to convene diverse stakeholders, clarify complexity, and co-design individual, team, and business strategies that are both credible and workable. I bring independence, integrity, and a sharp focus on outcomes, helping organisations make decisions they can stand behind. I also bring joy and happiness to my work, leading with kindness.
