Scaling a business is complex. Every growth phase comes with new challenges—aligning teams, structuring for scale, raising capital, and preparing for exit.
I partner with ambitious founders to help them solve real business challenges, develop as leaders, and achieve sustainable success—without losing sight of what matters most.
Through a hybrid approach that blends strategic advisory and leadership coaching, I provide the clarity, strategy, and support to navigate key business transitions while strengthening leadership.
Whether you're launching, scaling, or preparing for exit, I act as a long-term strategic partner, guiding you through every stage.
Over two decades, I’ve built, scaled, and sold businesses—including an eight-figure agency with 150+ people—and co-founded Asia’s first brand-tech group. I’ve worked with some of the world’s most ambitious leaders, navigating everything from rapid growth to successful exits.
Now, as an advisor and ICF-certified coach, I partner with founders to help them scale with clarity, confidence, and impact.
My unique hybrid approach blends business strategy with leadership development—ensuring both business success and personal fulfillment.
