Why this site, and why now
I have coached people for a long time: about fifteen years as a tennis coach and interclub team coach, many seasons as a ski and snowboard instructor, then years helping people with their health. Coaching artists is the natural continuation of that path.
So why a website, and why now?
Because of time. I help artists free themselves from what keeps them from their art, and very often, what keeps them from it is time spent elsewhere. If I ask artists to protect their time, I should start by protecting mine. And theirs.
When I meet an artist for the first time, we could spend a long conversation on who I am, how I work and what I can bring. That conversation matters, but it doesn’t need to happen out loud. This site holds it for us. You can read it at your own pace, watch two minutes of video and feel whether it resonates, before we ever speak.
Then, when we do talk, we start where it counts: your art, where you are today and what takes your time and energy.
That is also why the site stays simple: a clear and lasting window on what I do, built to inform rather than to sell.
The first conversation is free. If what you read here speaks to you, write to me.
