My background

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been passionate about productivity and helping people improve the way they work and learn.

After my degree in Psychology and Post Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE), I spent twelve years as a Teacher, where I discovered my love for empowering others.

As a Senior Management Team member, I empowered teams through coaching and training and as a Performance Manager, I guided staff and students towards achieving their targets and goals.

My Outreach consultancy work took me across primary schools in Brighton and Hove, where I delivered training and shared my expertise in Special Educational Needs with families and school teams.

After taking a career break to focus on motherhood, I retrained in coaching and earned an accredited Diploma in Performance Coaching. I proudly launched Heads-up Coaching in 2018.

Working with my early clients, I noticed a consistent pattern – the most significant challenge they faced wasn’t strategy or skills. It was time. They felt overwhelmed by endless to-do lists, struggled to prioritise and it affected their productivity and wellbeing.

In 2020, I made the decision to specialise exclusively in time management and productivity, combining my background in psychology, education and coaching to help people work smarter, not harder.

How I help

Through business coaching, productivity training and keynote talks, I help business owners and teams set clear goals, create effective systems and build productive habits that bring balance to their work and life.

I am also a Productivity Ninja (yes, that is a real job title!) at Think Productive—a global leader in productivity and wellbeing training – where I deliver workshops and keynotes to teams and organisations across the UK.

I live in Brighton and Hove with my husband, our two wonderful daughters and adorable dog.

When I’m not working, you’ll find me walking or cycling along the seafront and through the Sussex countryside, swimming, practicing yoga, singing, reading or planning our next travel adventure.
