About Me
As a Certified Professional Coach, I guide:
• motivated individuals to live on purpose,
• committed professionals to lead on purpose, and
• forward-thinking teams and organizations to grow on purpose.
Each Touchstone Coach sets the bar high. My clients are held accountable to reaching for their greatest potential — both personally and professionally. Having experienced the extraordinary gift of living and working with intention, I passionately bring that awareness to my work and to my clients.
My professional development includes:
• A BS in Psychology from the University of Pennsylvania,
• Extensive work in Group Dynamics at the Wharton School,
• Seven years in Vistage,
• Training & Certification in Co-active™ coaching (Coaches Training Institute),
• Training in Organization and Relationship Systems Coaching (ORSC through the Center for Right Relationship),
• Training & Certification in the Team Diagnostic Assessment & Team Coaching (Team Coaching International),
• Leadership development & coaching (Coaches Training Institute)
I am driven by my passions for my own growth and creativity. My personal & professional worlds clearly reflect a journey in pursuit of excellence, always balanced with a great deal of humor and heart. I have a well honed ability to see what others do not. I balance fierce candor with a warm heart.
I bring to my coaching a background as a successful serial entrepreneur, leader, strategist, creator, consultant, developer, integrator, and life-long learner. I bring an in-depth knowledge of the world of business, crisp insights, and a personal understanding of the challenges of creating a meaningful life ... with balance.

David has a gift. He is able to cut to the underlying motivators and demotivators that impact my performance in my personal and professional life. Working with him gives me a weekly tune-up to be at my best in my work and home life.

Working with David has opened up new horizons for me. He has helped me be the person I have long wanted to but couldn't figure out how to become. With his guidance in the past 10 months, I landed a great new job, and restored my marriage.

Your heartfelt coaching had a powerful impact on me, helped me re-clarify my values and see where I was getting some values mixed up with each other. And that was just a 15 minute session ...

I have been realizing more and more about your natural power of working with people. You remember stuff and somehow you are able to steer people in powerful direction with compassion and joy."
"You are natural at that. There is no effort - at least I do not see that. Thanks for your help.
