Summary

I’ve always been the person people come to when they’re feeling stuck—when they’re unsure what to study, where to work, or what’s next. And honestly, I love that. I’ve built a career around helping people figure things out—starting with myself.

My journey began while I was still a student, working as a Teaching Assistant. I wasn’t just helping grade papers—I was listening, guiding, and slowly realizing that education was more than just a major. It was a calling. My thesis ended up being education-focused, and without fully knowing it, I had started walking a path I’d never leave.

After university, I stepped into the corporate world—into the sharp, numbers-driven space of investments. It was fast, challenging, and formative. But every time I worked on an education project, something clicked. I lit up. That clarity pushed me toward the education sector with full force—and I haven’t looked back since.

Over the years, I’ve explored that passion from every angle: career development, edtech, alumni engagement, government strategy, and early years policy. I’ve helped students build futures, startups shape ideas, and institutions design systems that actually serve people. I also founded my own consultancy, where I work with families to untangle the confusion around education and map out meaningful, personalized paths.

I’m not just passionate about education—I’m passionate about people. I care about impact. I care about clarity. And I believe in creating systems that make others feel seen, capable, and excited about what comes next.

Off the record? I’m driven, curious, a little sassy, and very real. I thrive in spaces that value growth, soul, and structure. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s this: every journey starts with a conversation. So let’s talk.
