Hi, I’m Angela

As a career evolution coach, I empower individuals through the pursuit of promotions, the exploration of new opportunities, and the challenges of job loss. My philosophy is grounded in the power of learning, self-discovery and personal growth. I am confident in my clients' capacity to strategically plan and develop their career paths. My approach ensures that clients evolve this path with confidence and purpose.

I am known for my curiosity, compassion, and calm presence. My practice lies in the art of deep listening, facilitating the creation of forward-thinking plans to propel action. Guided by a learner’s mindset, I approach every situation with openness, striving to enrich a client’s’ self-learning journey.

I am also a Senior Consultant in Royer Thompson’s Talent, Culture and HR Advisory Services practice, bringing deep experience in talent acquisition, talent management, policy development and employee experience. Prior to joining Royer Thompson, I spent over 15 years in senior HR leadership roles, leading in-house HR practices and operations in post-secondary and private environments.

I have a master’s degree in business administration (MBA) from St Mary’s University, and an Undergrad from Cape Breton University (CBU).  I hold a Graduate Certificate in Executive Coaching from Royal Roads University and an Associate Certified Coach (ACC) credential from the International Coaching Federation (ICF).

I serve on the Board of Directors of the ICF Atlantic Chapter, and am a member of the Halifax Chamber of Commerce and of 100+ Women Who Care Halifax.

The whole-person coach approach

I listen intently and ask questions that ignite self-awareness and insight. Our sessions are a journey into self-discovery, delving into your core values and strengths, linking your personal growth to professional achievements.

Together, we'll unearth your inner power. Harnessing this, you'll confidently chase your goals. Our strategies will be custom-made, echoing your ambitions and ensuring every move is purposeful. The journey is continuous, designed to release your authentic self.
