About Me
I am an Executive Coach, Team Coach and Facilitator based in Berlin.
Born and grown up in China, I have lived and worked in Australia, Singapore, Canada and Germany over the last three decades.
As a global citizen, I have transitioned into new countries, industries, companies, and roles many times throughout my professional life.
I empower global executives, leaders and teams to thrive in transitions with courage, clarity and resilience.

What has brought me to Coaching?
After surviving a traffic accident in 2019, I asked myself what it really meant to me to lead a fulfilling life and how I could make more positive impact on the society. I have listened to my inner calling and started my coaching journey.
Having traveled and moved to so many different places in the world to advance my career path, I understand very well how it might feel being a foreigner or an “outsider” and how challenging it could be sometimes with the invisible glass ceiling in the workplace, especially in a traditional (white male-dominant) industry. At the same time, we are often over stretched while trying to balance the multiple roles (as a leader, partner, parent…) on our shoulders and meet the various demands.
More than ever, I know how valuable the guidance and support of a good coach can be for each individual, especially in a transition period and in the nowadays ever-evolving social environment with much uncertainty ahead.
I am a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC) at the Co-Active Training Institute (CTI), and ACC (Associate Certified Coach) by ICF (International Coaching Federation).
As the oldest and largest coaching training institute in the world, CTI has laid the foundation for the modern coaching industry. The Co-Active model has been regarded as the “gold standards” of coaching and it has also profoundly transformed my own life in many ways.
My other coaching qualification and accreditation include:
- 2020 Positive Intelligence Coaching Program
- 2021 ORSC (Organisation & Relationship Systems Coaching) Fundamental Course
- 2022 CTPC (Certified Team Performance Coaching) Master Class and Come Alive
- 2023 Hogan Assessment Certification
- 2023-24 Thresholds of Soul Master Classes
I am also a Career Coach for the MBA students at ESMT, the leading Business School in Germany.
With genuine curiosity for people, I am an attentive listener and create a safe space for my clients to discover their personal values, life purpose and their true passion. My coaching style is authentic, coactive and holistic. I help my clients to build deeper self-awareness to their inner wisdom, and gain new perspectives through the evolving dynamics in the challenging situation. I support my clients to get out of their comfort zones, let go of limiting beliefs while unlocking their unique strengths and full potentials. I help clients develop desired new skills, change self-defeating mindsets, improve personal performance and elevate confidence. I inspire my clients to enhance their intercultural competence und develop global mindset by focusing on similarities among cultures and creating synergies. I support my clients to build up growth mindset and develop learning as a life-long habit so that they have the resilience and self-trust to thrive no matter in what circumstances.
I am passionate about coaching and it has been so rewarding for me to see how I can inspire and evoke brilliance, creativity, and positive energy of the others. I am honouring my core values and living my life purpose fully in my coaching practice!

As a facilitator, I have facilitated strategy development programs for executive teams for large international organisations and conducted series of leadership training seminars. I have collaborated with clients in various industries such as automotive, banking, education, financial services, health care, technology, retail and manufacturing, as well as non-profit international organisations.
As a management consultant I have led highly diversified international teams and managed complex projects successfully such as company set-ups, launch of new products/business models and process reengineering.
In my prior corporate career in Germany, I have held management roles with global responsibilities in Business Process Management and Organisational Consulting at Daimler Financial Services.
In my professional life back in China in the early years, I have also worked in 2 different commercial banks.
My previous studies include a Bachelor of Arts degree in English at the Guangdong University of Foreign Studies in Guangzhou, China (awarded in 1994) and a Master of Commerce degree in Accounting at the University of Sydney in Australia (awarded in 2001)
Where I am now
I am a strong advocate of global and growth mindsets. Authenticity, compassion, integrity and open-mindedness are my core values.
I work in Chinese, English and German. I offer coaching and consulting services both online and in person.
Currently I live with my family in Berlin, probably the most international, creative and dynamic city in Germany. Berlin has already become my second hometown, where I have lived for over 15 years in the last 2 decades.
When I am not working, I love photographing, reading, meditation, yoga and walking in the nature.
