Background

Queenie is a leadership and transformational coach who brings together intuition, empowerment, and direct clarity to support professionals in elevating how they think, lead, and live.

With two decades of experience in global HR, leadership, and sales — spanning Google, Microsoft, Temasek, and Lazada — she has coached senior leaders, high-performing teams, and emerging talent across cultures and industries. For more than 10 years, clients have consistently expressed how they’ve “never met anyone who breaks things down so clearly” and “learned more from one conversation than they expected.” Many stay connected long after their engagement ends because the impact is lasting and actionable.

Her coaching style is a hybrid of intuitive presence and structured inquiry. She leans primarily on ICF-aligned coaching while weaving in mentoring only when it genuinely serves a client’s growth. She believes that transformation comes when individuals reconnect with their inner wisdom, challenge limiting narratives, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Her lived experiences navigating leadership challenges, reinvention, career pivots, and health adversity deepen her empathy and connection with clients. Passionate about STEM, animals, travel, integrity, and ethics, Queenie brings both heart and humanity to every coaching partnership.
