“For the best return on your money, pour your wallet into your head.” – Nolen Bushnell

The education sector is a place I’m passionate about; it’s about working to my why and ensuring that all I do aligns with my values.

Everything I do and the people I interact with is about seeing that “light bulb” go off and see the joy in their eyes when they “get it” or “have done it”- you can’t place a $ value on it, but it sure gives me chills!

I love seeing the possibilities in everything we do, enabling growth both in skill sets and new offerings.

I’ve developed a deep knowledge of business strategy and growth as well as training strategies and learning methods over the last 30 years.

I know that by completing our programs, our clients are able to drive their career opportunities and get to be where they need to be.

I’m not just a professional educator, I’m an education practitioner, as I see it as an obligation to continue to learn myself, however it is with passion that I do this, as I’m ever curious and open-minded to new ideas and expanding my horizons.

“ It’s hard to beat a person who never gives up.” – Babe Ruth

I opened my first business when I was 21 years old, which grew into WA, VIC and QLD within the first 2 years. I have coached thousands of team members, many developing into Team Leaders and Managers over their career.

My skill is in identifying the ‘What, Why and How’ for people. Education can create an opportunity to change for the better – to grow and evolve – this is why I love training and working with people to achieve their goals. From an individual student with career goals, to a Company with expansion plans, I have the experience and drive to make it happen.
