My path to becoming an Executive Wisdom Partner has never been linear.
It has been lived, across continents, cultures, communities, and states of consciousness.

​

In my early years, I traveled the world as a private chef, immersing myself in diverse cultures and the unspoken language of hospitality. These years taught me how to listen deeply, to energy, to nuance, and to what is not being said. I wasn’t just learning about food, I was learning about presence, humility, and the human condition.

​

Eventually, I followed a deeper inner call and spent three years living in an intentional spiritual community in Scotland, where daily life became a container for awakening. From silence to service, every moment became a teacher.

​

Over the years, I’ve undertaken pilgrimages and transformative journeys through India, South America, Central America, South Africa, and Thailand; each one peeling back layers, revealing truths, breaking me open and putting me back together. These were not “trips.” They were initiations.

​

Professionally, I’ve spent the last two decades guiding senior leaders, entrepreneurs, and teams through deep transition, expansion, and alignment. I’ve facilitated leadership offsites, designed transformational learning journeys, and coached executives at some of the world’s most influential organizations. For over 11 years, I’ve been a faculty member at Integral Coaching Canada, training other coaches to hold developmental depth with integrity and presence.

​

And throughout it all, beneath it all, has been the practice of Zen. A thread of stillness woven through every conversation, every threshold, every breath. It is this synthesis of experience, earthbound and transcendent, strategic and spiritual, that I now bring to the leaders I serve.

​

This isn’t just my profession.
It’s the shape of my life.
