We partner with both organizations and individuals to help them unlock their full potential — through leadership coaching, team development, and immersive off-sites. Together, we cultivate workplaces driven by purpose, trust, and sustainable performance.
My purpose is simple: to help people unlock their potential and pursue their ambitions with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
Drawing on over 20 years of experience in Human Resources, a global mindset, and the discipline of an athlete, I support both individuals and organizations in achieving meaningful, lasting growth.
As an ICC-certified Coach specializing in High-Performance Psychology, Sports Mental Coaching, and Intelligent Leadership, I integrate proven methodologies to foster deep self-awareness and sustainable results.
Using CliftonStrengths (Gallup) as a foundation, I help clients identify their unique talents and turn them into strengths that drive impact, resilience, and fulfillment.
Two experiences shaped who I am and how I work:
•Multiculturality – With a British mother, a Portuguese father, and childhood years spent as an expat in French Africa, I grew up surrounded by diversity — of people, cultures, and perspectives. This taught me early the power of empathy, curiosity, and connection. Over time, I’ve worked with professionals from four continents and become fluent in English, Portuguese, and French, with conversational Spanish adding another bridge of communication.
•Sports – My years as a competitive swimmer taught me discipline, focus, and resilience — but also the importance of teamwork and trust. Even in individual performance, success depends on the collective: teammates pushing one another, coaches believing in you, and the shared pursuit of excellence. Those lessons define how I coach, lead, and live — with determination, empathy, and courage to grow.
These experiences led me to study Sociology, driven by a deep curiosity about how people and cultures interact — and how that understanding can help them work better together.
My career bridges the worlds of corporate leadership, human capital strategy, and coaching.
•Corporate HR –I worked with leading multinationals such as Nestlé, major retailers like DIA, and global pharmaceuticals including Abbott Laboratories, developing a deep understanding of organizational dynamics and talent strategy.
•HR Consulting – I partnered with innovative start-ups such as Jason Associates, international headhunters like Odgers Berndtson, and leading local firms including Ray Human Capital, supporting clients in building stronger, more human-centered organizations.
•Lead With People – In 2018, I founded Lead With People — a space to bring together all these experiences with the mindset of high performance. Since then, I’ve led projects such as:
My path hasn’t been linear — and that’s what makes it powerful. It’s given me the ability to connect with people from all walks of life, understand their perspectives, and meet them where they are.
Coach2Lead, my proprietary coaching framework, was born from this diversity of experience. It combines imagery with the sports mindset to foster leadership growth — uniting the mental focus and resilience of athletes with the empathy and self-awareness essential to great leadership.
I hold a Postgraduate Degree in Management and Strategic Development of Human Resources and a Certificate in Principles of Business, bridging human understanding with tangible business results.
As a certified MBTI and EQ-i practitioner, I help clients strengthen emotional intelligence, enhance communication, and build relationships grounded in trust.
