About me
Before I became a coach, I was, and still am, a chef. This career has taken me all over the world. From my hometown of Calgary, Alberta, to L.A., Hong Kong, Melbourne and more, I have learned an amazing appreciation for individuals, their struggles and their successes. Coaching is a way for me to take part in that journey with people and help them reach heights they never thought possible.
I was acknowledged in the 30 under 30 list for Code Hospitality in the UK, for my leadership and commitment to creating a better future for chefs.
I completed my coaching certificate with an exceptional organization called Coacharya. Coacharya is an international group with an East-meets-West philosophy, and it is recognized by the ICF (International Coaching Federation.)
About Mortar
Mortar speaks to two things: mortar as a material used in masonry to build with and mortar as a mortar & pestle.
Mortar is a combination of different materials. Sand, lime, and water to name a few. With this unlikely combination, we can build homes, walls, and structures by connecting many bricks and stones. This is how I see coaching—a binder to help you bring together unlikely elements to build a stronger future.
Mortar & pestles are used the world over in cooking and various medicinal practices. Through our conversations, you will leave feeling nourished and healed.
