Welcome. I'm Alex, an artist with experience supporting leaders across both public and private sectors, ranging from Professional Services to Biostatistics Research. I began professional life with a Degree in Finance at Durham University before a varied career in a Big 4 Consultancy, a brief stint in a US based risk modelling company and time with a nature based organisation specialising on grant applications for restoration of the British Countryside. Alongside an experientially rich life, these experiences served as foundational to my way of seeing and relating with the world.

​

​Following my passion and demand for richer conversations, I trained in Gestalt Coaching at the Academy of Executive Coaches, an ICF accredited institution, along with a host of developmental tools from Harthill Leadership Development Profile to Strengthscope. I'm committed to lifelong learning and continue to develop my professional competencies through CPD work, most recently with the Gestalt International Study Centre. I adhere to the EMCC Global Code of Ethics and Competence Framework. 

​

Good conversation, and space for this to happen, is essential and I bring a grounded yet creative approach to facilitate this. As a reflective, often sensitive man, I know first hand the importance of curious and non-judgemental spaces for individuals to feel seen and heard. I've been a sounding board to individuals working on national planning policy frameworks, public health, tax and pensions, catastrophe bonds, climate change and matters of the heart. 

​

Creativity and a grounding in the present guides my approach. Clients can expect a relational dynamic of challenge, support and edge.

​

In my free time, I can be found playing competitive squash, restoring ancient field boundaries in community on Dartmoor or pondering the absurd in nature and on paper.
