One could say it takes an extraordinary person to achieve the seemingly impossible. However, when you look a little closer, our heroes are just everyday people who decided to take that all-important leap of faith. 

 

Throughout my growth journey, I have noticed the significance of being intentional in contemplating how best to reach my goals.  Whenever I encountered an obstacle in my journey, taking the time to reflect and explore personal growth strategies would assist me in regaining clarity, reigniting hope, and finding true contentment within myself. 

 

My journey began in the military as a Medical Service Corps Officer; then, I transitioned to the civilian workforce as a leader in Human Resources.

​

I am passionate about helping you gain clarity and confidence to create alternative pathways to success. Together we'll create a space where you can contemplate and conceive new possibilities for your desired future.

 

My educational background  includes a bachelor's in Human Performance and Wellness, followed by an MBA in HR Management. I have also attained certifications in Change Management (PROSCI) and coaching from the Board of Certified Coaches (BCC). Presently, I am pursuing my Ph.D. in Industrial and Organizational Psychology ​​to amplify the work of coaching, create room for marginalized identities, and add to the gaps in the literature; my research is centered on coaching to support and enhance Psychological Capital in women entrepreneurs.
