About Me

"Having a career shouldn't be this hard." That's what I kept thinking as I climbed the career ladder, passionate about my work, but always on the edge of exhaustion. I became a professional coach after spending over 25 years in leadership roles in the nonprofit and for-profit sectors. But like many leaders, after years of high stress and long hours, and too many people counting on me to deliver, I hit the wall. I was exhausted and completely drained. Behind the "I've got it all together" facade and can-do attitude that's expected of leaders, the truth is, some days I just wanted to crawl under the covers and hide.

Discovering coaching was life-changing. Coaching helped me develop resilience, emotional intelligence, and the courage and confidence to choose a different path. I wish I'd found coaching much earlier in my career. This is the gift I offer my clients. I am passionate about developing and encouraging people to become better leaders, helping them tap into their inner strengths, develop their personal leadership style and voice, discover what sparks creative energy, and reset negative patterns that may be sabotaging their careers, relationships and health.

How I coach - We'll start by understanding your unique story, vision and goals for coaching. What do you want to be different? I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. We will experiment with different approaches to unpack your strengths, stress response, emotions and thought patterns - and I introduce you to a variety of tools to help you tune in, lean in, draw boundaries, focus your priorities, and create the life and career you want.

I am an ICF PCC credentialed coach, Certified Health Coach, and Whole Person Certified Coach. I have a MA in Organizational Management. I've served in senior executive roles, and mentored and supervised hundreds of women over the years, from small start-up entrepreneurs to senior executives in international organizations. Let's work together!
