About Me

I'm a Swiss/American performance coach, writer, mother, pilot, student of Shotokan karate, pianist, dog and coffee lover. Born in Chicago and raised in Monaco and in Newport, Rhode Island, I now live in Switzerland, sharing my time between Gstaad and Lausanne. Fluent in English, French and German, I am familiar with multiple cross-cultural lifestyles.

My business experience includes running a weekly newspaper, serving as a consulting strategic planning team member at a German bank and as a logistics manager at a Swiss-based media software company.

I am an award-winning author of articles in local newspapers in the USA, Switzerland and on the internet. My writing has appeared in Newport This Week, GstaadLife, Anzeiger von Saanen, and Expatica. My blog, Life in the Swiss Alps shares the discovery of my Swiss roots.

With a Bachelor of Arts in German Literature and European History from Barnard College at Columbia University in New York, NY and a Core Essentials Coaching Degree from CoachU in London, UK, I am student in Corporate Coach U’s Advanced Corporate Coaching Program.

Being into continuous education, self-reflection, and development myself, I will help you organize your thinking and move forward with any changes that fit your reality as well as your values.

I coach in three languages (English, French or German) on Skype, by phone or by Google Hangouts. I also coach in person if you are in Lausanne or Gstaad, Switzerland or in Newport, RI (summer only).
