more about me

I retired from a very successful Corporate career when I was 35, which was a goal I set when I left University. I was then a Director in a very large successful U.S. multinational with 450 people reporting to me.

I would contribute a lot of my success in the Corporate World to my belief in myself, hard work, my passion for Personal Development and appetite for learning in general. I started out working in a male dominated technical environment. Some people told me it was a bad move because I would have to be twice as good as any male counter part to be successful. Maybe that was the case but I never felt that I was not equal or less worthy than anyone else. This belief helped to propel me forward because I did not have self-limiting beliefs. I saw many people hold themselves back because they resigned themselves to the fact that someone else would get “that promotion”. I never look at things that way, life may not always be fair, but I sure as hell am not going to tip the balance in anyone else’s favour by not believing that I can do anything I set my mind to.

Achieving success is a challenge, but it’s about making a decision to take that step in the direction you want to go and then committing to finishing the job. It’s about taking control of your life. For me it’s also about being true to yourself and maintaining your integrity with others.
