Commercial Management, Partnerships, Coaching
Hey there!
I’ve spent 12+ years leading teams, building partnerships, and growing businesses in gaming, esports, SaaS startups, and events. Having worked in fast-paced, male-dominated industries and managed client relationships, I've learned much about what it takes to drive growth and keep teams motivated.
Last year, I took a step back from my role as a Commercial Director to recover from burnout and figure out what matters to me. That time away taught me a lot about balancing ambition with well-being and staying true to myself. Now, I’m diving into something new. I’m currently certifying as an NLP and life coach because I love helping people overcome challenges, find what inspires them, and bring out their best. I know how it feels to be lost, and I’m here to help you avoid that.
In addition to personal development, I also coach on business-related topics, drawing from my leadership and commercial experience.
Whether you’re stepping into a leadership role, looking to build strong partnerships, figuring out how to thrive in a tough industry, or even wanting to manage burnout and stay balanced, I’ve got your back. I’m here to share real-life experiences, practical tips, and a listening ear.
