Hello, I’m Kelsi.
Two decades of experience spanning the social impact sector, I have a proven track record of leading and delivering across dynamic multilateral institutions, non-profits, foundations, and consulting firms.
After more than 10 years of living on the African continent, moving from one humanitarian emergency to another, and working across Africa, the Middle East and Asia, I moved to Geneva, Switzerland and transitioned to the leadership team of a consulting firm.
As the Chief Operating Officer of a social impact strategy advisory firm, I loved the relentless pace of consulting, impact advisory, and executive management. However, my identity was my work, and with time this became unhealthy and unsustainable.
After nearly 20 beautiful (mostly) and high-paced (always) years of working a 9-5 (or rather an 8-8), I was craving transformation, both personally and professionally. I dedicated a year to education, practicums and pro-bono coaching, before officially launching this business. It is a work in progress, because my mastery of coaching will be a lifelong quest.
