About
I have always been fascinated by the relation between language and culture, and how cultural differences influence thought and communication.
My personal experience of growing up in New York, then spending my formative years in multi-cultural Britain, followed by a long stint in Paris, nourished my early interest in anthropology, and my study of language, human behaviour, culture and society.
This background has motivated my career and proven central to the work I do with my clients.
I have extensive experience with clients in a wide range of professions across academia and research, business, and government.
Their international careers in an English-speaking work environment require excellent language skills, but above all inter-cultural communication skills, adaptability and cultural awareness which are essential to their success. Using my qualifications as an Executive Coach, and my Doctorate in social anthropology I am happy to be able to help clients develop their careers and meet the challenges of an increasingly global work environment.
