About Me

As a leader who has been coached, I know the value and impact of coaching. My coach once asked, “What brings you joy?” That question started me on a journey that led to my becoming a Certified Executive Coach following a long career in leadership positions in the post-secondary sector of Alberta, Canada. My career has afforded me opportunities to navigate complex structures; work with leaders at multiple levels across the organization; collaborate with cross-functional teams; and develop, mentor and coach high performing teams.

As a leadership coach, I have the privilege of coaching internationally with clients situated in not-for-profits, and private and public organizations, including the health-care, post-secondary and a variety of private sectors. I value lifelong learning, so I get great satisfaction in having a front-row seat where I get to watch the learning that my clients experience.

I believe we are each made uniquely and have a purpose in life. I also believe that, regardless of the title or position we hold, we have the potential to lead from where we stand. These are beliefs I bring to my coaching. Above all, I bring integrity, honesty and commitment.

I hold a Graduate Certificate in Executive Coaching from Royal Roads University, and Bachelor of Commerce and Master of Education degrees, plus a Gold College Leadership Certificate from the University of Alberta. In addition, I am certified practitioner of EQi 2.0 and EQi 360, and the Myers Briggs Type Indicator.

I am a member in good standing of the International Coaching Federation and the Council on the Advancement and Support of Education.

When not listening deeply to my coaching clients, I take joy in spending time with my children and granddaughter. You may find my husband and I on the walking trails near our home with our dog, Zoe, or enjoying cuisine at nearby restaurants.
