Hi, I'm Anna

I lead a team of dedicated coaches delivering quality ICF Accredited Coach Education.

NZIC's Coaching Training Education Program provides a pathway for individuals to blend their skills, knowledge, and experience with the art and science of coaching to create work that delivers purpose and inspiration to their lives, and to the lives of others.

I also work with coaches to develop their coaching confidence. As a Personal Development Coach, a Mentor Coach, and a Coaching Supervisor, I support coaches to connect and engage with their ideal clients, show up with authenticity, and bring their best to their client relationships.
