Leadership Development with

Great leadership is not just about managing people. It is about building trust, making better decisions, communicating clearly, and helping others do their best work. This MentorCruise session is designed to support professionals who want to grow into stronger leaders, whether you are stepping into leadership for the first time or looking to become more effective in an existing role.

You’ll work with an experienced mentor to navigate real leadership challenges and develop a clearer sense of your style, strengths, and growth areas. Together, you can work through topics like communication, delegation, feedback, team dynamics, decision-making, and executive presence. The goal is to help you lead with more confidence, self-awareness, and effectiveness in the situations that matter most.

I help build better people and products. I work with founders and companies strategizing, designing and building AI products. I also work with people to explore what goes unseen, through honest inquiry and the kind of presence that only comes from someone who has been there themselves.

I've spent over twenty years working across technology, startups, and human development. I've led design at Google Switzerland, shaped product strategy at Consensys MENA, and co-founded Mamo, a DFSA-licensed fintech. I've also been an Acumen Global Fellow, working on financial inclusion through microfinance in rural Asia.

Today I work with founders and companies on AI product strategy, experience design, and design leadership. I also advise on design team culture and organisation design, and invest in ventures aligned with mental health, sustainability, and forward-facing technology.

Alongside the consulting work, I coach. I'm a Certified Co-Active Coach and PCI Certified Integration Practitioner, trained in harm reduction, trauma-aware practice, and ethics. My approach is shaped by over a decade of personal practice including meditation, somatic work, plant medicine, Vipassana retreats, and the Hoffman Process.

I'm based in Cape Town. I work with clients worldwide.
