I am a Global Executive Communication Coach & Mentor (MCC, ICF) who works with C – Level Executives and high potential leaders to help them create positive permanent shifts in their leadership impact and the results they achieve. My engagements consist of working one-to-one with senior executives worldwide and with senior teams to help them co-act better and increase their executive visibility and impact as a team. I also work with executive teams to help them communicate effectively with their internal and external stakeholders while taking decisive actions to expedite progress and capitalize on their character strengths.
By equipping leaders with practical tools and serving as a trusted thought partner, I assist them in navigating the complexities of change. This empowers them to optimize new behaviours through practice and troubleshooting before implementing them in real-world scenarios.
My academic background includes a Ph.D. thesis on Corporate Communication with a specialization in Organizational Communication during Mergers & Acquisitions. Furthermore, I hold a Master’s degree in International Management from the University of La Verne, California, and a bachelor’s degree in International Relations from Panteion University of Social & Political Sciences, Department of International & European Studies.

Additionally, I have honed my expertise as an executive workshop leader in numerous topics specializing in the areas of Executive Coaching, Interpersonal, and Corporate Communication, as well as, Executive Mentoring and ICF Mentor Coaching.
Having genuine interest for the coaching profession, I have created Life Self Coaching Methodology© and co-authored the innovative coaching methodology Face your Strengths ©.
