My story

I am passionate about helping individuals identify what they need to thrive. During my time in the City of London, first in investment banking at Goldman Sachs and then in financial PR, I wished I had had someone to guide me through the challenges I faced. I wasn’t aware of the powerful effect my state of mind and lifestyle choices were having on me mentally and physically.

A turning point came when I took a year off to pursue a dream and attended drama school. Studying for an MA in classical acting at The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, I became fascinated by the concept of the social mask and how we often feel the need to present ourselves in certain ways. Stripping away these layers at drama school was terrifying but ultimately liberating. I learned to let go of my insecurities and embrace my true self.

In 2010, I founded Get Fit for Purpose, a personal training business in London. Working with busy professionals, I realised that to help my clients achieve their goals, I also needed to focus on their lives beyond our training sessions – how were they sleeping, eating, and managing stress. If my clients wanted to reach their goals I needed to help them make sustainable change outside of our ‘beasting’ session as well as within!

In 2013, I co-founded Gazelle Partners, a personalised corporate wellbeing business. We combined the holistic approach of lifestyle medicine with a deep understanding of the mind, empowering people to make sustainable changes to their daily habits—both mentally and physically. Through one-on-one coaching and supporting at scale via our digital platform, we fostered lasting improvements in overall well-being for thousands of individuals, working with companies such as Accenture, Red Bull, Google and British Land.

My focus currently is on individual coaching, particularly for teens and twenty-somethings whilst continuing to support corporates through one-off workshops, one-to-one programmes, and nutrigenomics packages all with an emphasis on mental health.

It is an honour to walk with my clients for a while and help them unlock their innate human potential.
