About

I love serving God’s kingdom through the local church and helping others make a real difference in the world.

With a background in architecture, organisational management, and church leadership, nothing brings me greater joy than seeing people flourish in life, faith, and their calling. I’m passionate about grace, sustained by joy, and nourished by family and friendship.

I serve as Vicar at St Peter’s Hextable & St Paul’s Swanley Village on the London-Kent border, having contributed in other pastoral leadership roles across the Midlands and Greater London. I’m involved in a range of charity projects, creative ventures and other kingdom initiatives. I completed part-time doctoral research on organisational health in 2023… and am still recovering! I find the world endlessly fascinating and remain deeply thankful every day.

I’m married to an outstanding human being, and a glad parent to young adult children who bring continual joy. My musical and artistic talents are a bit rusty, and my hockey and tennis skills are long gone, but I love good food, and probably post too many coffee photos on Instagram.

Coaching

Coaching and consulting input represents some of the best of my kingdom input outside of parish life, alongside training and teaching invitations.

Coaching is a varied, dynamic, action-oriented process of accompaniment. I usually serve people in monthly patterns, though I often initiate a series of six weekly or fortnightly sessions to best accelerate familiarisation, insight, and progress.

Each coaching journey will have bespoke elements that we’ll agree on together in an initial thirty-minute taster session. The overall goal will be to close the gap between your present and desired reality. Commitment, accountability and follow-through are some of the most valuable components of our time together.

Connecting people and cultures with their capacity is one of my favourite things. Equipping and encouraging people by exploring their aspirations, context, and the complexity faced at present is part of my favourite work.

I am glad to serve community leaders, marketplace managers, and creative entrepreneurs, along with church & charity sector leaders.
