I met Grace for coaching on a number of occasions. I found her to be highly motivated, articulate and a sponge for new knowledge which she grasps and applies immediately; other people will still be thinking about something, Grace will have it done. Her enthusiasm for her chosen career is palpable and infectious. My experience of working with her leads me to believe that the above, combined with her modesty and warm personality, ensures that she has the perfect recipe to be an asset to any organisation or client that she works with.
