An experienced practioner who thrives on assisting organisations and individuals fulfilling their potential
My working life of some 35 years has been characterised by wanting to see individuals discover and do those things that energise them! Having discovered the reality of God's love for me in my late teens, I felt called to leave banking, and change direction. It took another six years before I became a Church Army evangelist, working with drug users in the North West of England. The theme of releasing captives was one that resonated with me during this time.
I was then spent another fulfilling few years helping individuals to discover for themselves their sense of calling.
During this time I qualified as a Pastoral Counsellor, studying for my post grad Diploma at St John's College, Nottingham, and worked on a sessional basis with a counselling service in Kent. I was invited to join the staff of a large Anglican church in South East London, with responsibility for both evangelism and outreach, and for the work among children and young people. At this time I completed another Diploma studies with the Open University in Business Management, specialising in Systems Theory.
My flair for strategic thinking, and leadership development prepared me for my next role as a Regional Consultant for another UK agency, where I spent 11 fulfilling years working as a Leadership Consultant.
I also serve as a part-time priest in a local Anglican church in Surrey, and am responsible for Staff Wellbeing for the Ashford and St Peter's NHS Foundation Trust, based at St Peter's Hospital in Chertsey.
In my spare time I enjoy spending time in the countryside, riding my BMW R1200GS and watching Southampton FC
