About

I’m a performance-focused leader with a unique blend of experience in global corporate operations and individual athlete coaching. Over the past decade, I’ve led international teams of 100+ people across 39 countries, driving digital transformation, operational excellence, and shared service development within complex, matrixed organisations. I’ve delivered measurable results—including a 25% increase in net contribution and 98% client retention—while mentoring diverse, cross-regional teams to achieve their potential. In parallel, I’ve acquired international experience as a certified triathlon coach (BTF Levels I & II / DTU Trainer B) and TrainingPeaks-accredited mentor. I coach athletes of all levels—from complete beginners to Age Group World Championship qualifiers—through evidence-based, data-informed methods focused on resilience, growth, and personal achievement. Whether guiding high performers in the corporate environment or on the race course, my work is anchored in a belief that clarity, consistency and care lead to sustainable excellence.
