Michelle
I've always been curious about how people think, communicate, and work together—especially across cultures.
I grew up between New York City, London, and Cape Town, and have spent the past 19 years living and working in Asia, first in Japan and now in Taiwan.
Those experiences shaped how I see leadership, collaboration, and what it really takes for global teams to work well together.
Today, I support multinational leaders and teams in building cultural intelligence, psychological safety, and inclusive communication across APAC and beyond.
I work in both English and Mandarin Chinese, helping individuals and teams turn cultural complexity into clarity, trust, and better results.

Client Feedback
"Michelle’s professional expertise and fluent Mandarin facilitation led to workshop outcomes that far exceeded our expectations. From initial consultations to the live sessions, she fully demonstrated her mastery of cross-cultural facilitation—always keeping people at the center while precisely capturing the team's needs.
What impressed me most was her ability to translate complex communication theories into practical behaviors.

Her bilingual facilitation is not only seamless but carries a warm yet firm energy that effectively builds trust and collaboration.

To equip Mandarin Chinese-speaking professionals in Taiwan and beyond to lead and communicate more effectively in global environments, I partnered with CLN and Hahow to develop a focused 2.5-hour online course on Cultural and Emotional Intelligence, which became a bestseller on the platform.
