What makes working with me unique?
Real –World Expertise
As a certified Career Coach, Recruitment Professional, and Job Application Expert, I combine real-world experience with a deep understanding of the current job market to guide you towards career success.
Insider Knowledge from an Active Recruiter
Unlike many coaches, I am actively working as a recruiter in a large international company. This means I stay constantly updated on what works right now—from hiring trends and market demands to application standards. My regular exchange with other recruiters and hiring managers gives me access to insider knowledge that I share directly with you.
Professional Qualifications Backed by Personal Experience
With a Bachelor in Psychology, a Master in Human Resources, and certifications as a Career Coach (ICI) and NLP Practitioner, I bring a strong foundation of professional expertise to my coaching. This formal training, combined with years of experience, enables me to offer tailored guidance that goes beyond generic advice.
Additionally, my international background—being born outside of Germany, having lived in Cyprus for 3.5 years, and being married to a Brit—provides me with firsthand insight into the unique challenges professionals face when building a career in a new country. This combination of professional qualifications and personal experience allows me to offer tailored support that goes beyond generic advice.
My mission is to help you build a fulfilling and successful career – creating the life you dreamed of when you came to Germany.
My Path
My path has not been straightforward. I left school at 15 and undertook a commercial apprenticeship. I worked many years in different roles and it was ok, but it never really got me passionate. I never stopped looking around and trying different things.
It was only years later that I discovered my true passion: Human Resources (HR). I decided to change direction and develop my new passion. I went back to school and undertook a degree in Psychology and a Masters in Human Resources and Corporate Strategy. That gave me the foundation to develop a professional career in HR.
I now have many years of HR experience in different roles and companies and am currently working as a senior recruiter at an internationally renown, multicultural company.
In addition to this I am a freelancing careercoach and job application expert and am helping Internationals in Germany succeed in their job search.

Why Career Coaching?
In my role as a recruiter I often found that the applications from expats often are designed in a different way to what a recruiter/hiring manager in Germany would expect. Therefore expats can loose out on job opportunities, which is I thought was a real shame, as this is something that can easily be avoided and this is where I can help.
Having finally found my own vocation in HR and coaching, my ambition was to enable others to discover what their true vocation is, work out strategies and tools to follow that through and ultimately get the job, that really suits them.
Why Expats?
I was born in Romania and came to Germany when I was 11 years old. I have lived in Cyprus for 3 years and also have an English husband. I love different cultures and due to my background can empathise with the challenges that expats have when it comes to living and working in a different country, with different traditions, different values and ways of doing things. Furthermore, in my work as a recruiter, I see many applications from non-natives which do not meet the German standards, or norms and as such they often loose out unnecessarily.
With my personal background I can understand your struggle and with my professional knowledge I can help you overcome it.
