Desi spent 11 years working in the television production industry where she performed roles from script writing to producing well known TV programmes. This gave her invaluable experience in people management, as dealing with a multitude of different types of personalities from members of the public to famous faces gave her an immense understanding into how and why people behave the way they do. 

Desi's curiosity, empathic nature and passion for helping people led her towards NLP a few years ago when she decided to quit her TV career and embark on a more fulfilling path, and she never looked back: "My NLP Prac course was the most empowering and transformative experience of my life...."

She is constantly amazed by the incredible changes people make on the training courses and within one-to-one private sessions, and she finds it absolutely wonderful to witness and help individuals completely transform themselves.
