What WE do – short and simple
Together with my team, we guide conscious leaders and their teams through deep, meaningful growth — both personal and strategic.
Drawing on 20+ years of global business experience, we support leaders in developing clarity, confidence, and the presence needed to lead in today’s complex world.
Our mission is to transform traditional management into future-ready leadership that’s grounded, authentic, and built to create lasting impact.
Professional Background
Our journey began in 1998 when I joined the family-owned translation business as a Project Manager. Over time, my role evolved — from sales and marketing to leading complex projects. This hands-on path gave me (and later, my team) a clear view into the real workings of a business — from client needs to team dynamics and strategy.
From 2005 to 2020, I served as CEO. Together, we turned a small local company into a global language service provider. We scaled the business 20x, built strong international partnerships, and helped teams grow — not just in performance, but in culture and mindset.
When I stepped away in 2020, we were 50 people strong, supported by a network of 9,000 linguists worldwide. Today, I channel all that experience and those connections into Wingman — helping leaders and their teams grow with confidence and clarity.
Philosophy and Approach
Years of facing real business challenges taught us something simple but powerful: success often starts with asking better questions — and being open to guidance from those who’ve walked the path before.
Along the way, we discovered a knack for spotting the unique strengths in people and helping them bring those strengths to life — in themselves and in their teams.
When you recognize and nurture what makes each person shine, collaboration and creativity follow naturally.
This strength-based, people-first approach — grounded in curiosity, deep listening, and honest dialogue — has shaped how we lead, coach, and support others through meaningful change.
That’s why I founded Wingman — a platform where my team and I help leaders gain clarity, grow with confidence, and create lasting change in their work and life.
