Coaching with Compassion, Clarity, Transformation, and Impact

My Journey

Are you ready to elevate your leadership and gain clarity about your growth and impact?

I’m a human-centered leader and coach on a journey to make this life count. As a lifelong learner, I’m passionate about helping others discover their purpose and unlock their potential.

For the last 7 years I've been building two businesses designed to help leaders and teams realize their purpose. I partner with executives, leaders, purpose-driven teams, and people who want to have a positive impact in their community and larger world.

Prior to that I have worked as a leader in business, local government, and the university arena. I led a team responsible for facilitating organizational change, leadership development, and learning solutions.  My perfect day includes lots of eclectic music, hiking in the woods, swimming with a regular cold plunge, red sunsets, deep laughter, writing poetry, and random acts of kindness. I care deeply about the environment, purpose-driven work, and creating a world where everyone can thrive.

My Coaching Approach

As your coach, we'll design a partnership based on your goals and aspirations. These may include:

  • Building your emotional intelligence skills, starting with self-awareness
  • Exploring your values, strengths, and goals
  • Designing a personalized roadmap to build a life you intentionally design
  • Growing through exploration, action, curiosity, challenge, empathy, and reflection

Coaching with me is about creating a safe, positive space where transformation happens through choice, perspective, and balance.
