About us

supporting expats worldwide

WELCOME TO GALLAN AMRAL

We are very pleased to introduce our Consultants, Geraldine and Martin; our new Gifted & Talented Consultant, Fionnuala, and our Financial Advisor, Myra. We are an international team with decades of experience, dedicated to excellence.
Geraldine is our go-to person on all things expat. She works with people on a one-to-one basis or in groups to help them understand the impact of their expat journey and to achieve their dreams. Her first book – Expat Life: New Beginnings – helps individuals and families come to grips with the dynamics and emotions of that first foreign move. Her new expat book – Expat Life The Imprint Move – is available now, and deals with the tricky subject of culture, its additive and subtractive nature. Martin has an impressive amount of experience and expertise at managerial and leadership level in international education, developed around the world in many diverse cultures. He is a ‘people person’ and a champion of student learning. He works with people who happen to work in schools and educational institutions. His new online course, How to be a successful Deputy Head/Vice Principal, is available now via our COURSES Page.
Fionnuala, a millenial, and dedicated educator, has a particular expertise in the area of Gifted & Talented education, alongside her skills in IT and Graphics. 
Myra keeps us all grounded, advising on matters of finance.

At schools in Europe, Africa and Asia I have interacted positively with Faculty, members of Staff, Leadership and Management teams, Boards, Parents, Communities, Neighbours, Commercial and Administrative agencies.
