About this Gig

I spent over a decade as a broadcast journalist and producer for CNN, ABC, and CGTN before moving into international communications. For the past several years I've run global communications for an NGO operating across 15 countries, which means I've briefed executives, trained country teams, and coached colleagues through press interviews, donor pitches, and conference talks in three languages.


I'm not a generalist confidence coach. I've been on the other side of the camera and in the room when a pitch either lands or doesn't, and I know what separates a talk people remember from one they forget.


This coaching is for you if you have a specific presentation, speech, pitch, or interview coming up and want direct, practical feedback, not generic tips.


What I work on with clients:


  • Structuring a talk so the audience sticks with you
  • Editing for clarity and impact (most talks are too long, not too short)
  • Delivery, from pacing, filler words, vocal variety, and what to do with your hands
  • On-camera presence for interviews or remote presentations
  • Mock Q&A
  • Adapting a talk for a specific audience or format

    Great session - Ben helped me prep for a job interview. We also worked on running through my experience and CV. The human touch really helped to make the reframing feel more authentic and puts me in a much stronger position. It was a quick but productive session!

    Thank you so much, Ben! I was getting lost with all the AI noise, I really needed the expertise and nuance of an experienced professional to help me revamp my CV and to boost my preparedness for an interview. I'm a lot more confident after my session and will for sure book another in the future!
