After 10 years in corporate roles, Patch pivoted her career to follow her passion to help SME’s. For the last 10 years, Patch has worked with hundreds of companies from a broad range of industries such as: construction, recruitment, legal, accounting, marketing, real estate, architects, early childhood, IT services & not for profits to name a few.

As a coach, Patch spends all of her time helping business owners learn how to run their businesses, build healthy teams, drive growth, and most importantly – live a balanced life.
