About Me

Leadership begins with how you lead your life. You are a multifaceted person and aspects of that show up in everything you do—at work, at home, everywhere. I can help you optimize your whole-person development and empower your ability to show up at your best each and every day, personally and professionally, despite whatever volatility, uncertainty, complexity, or ambiguity you may face. I have been coaching since 2010 and have coaching experience in healthcare, technology, entertainment, business, government, education, and law.

I have helped clients to sharpen their emotional intelligence skills in the areas of self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills; effectively manage change and navigate uncertainty; develop effective leadership skills through strengths-building; and improve stress management and design a lifestyle of work-life harmony aligned by priorities and values.

I am a Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach, Certified Evidence-Based Coach by Fielding Graduate University, and have a Doctor of Social Work degree in Social Change and Innovation from the University of Southern California.

My coaching philosophy is that it is a process that empowers each individual through self-awareness, reflection, insight, action toward accomplishing goals, and accountability. I believe that coaching opens the door to possibilities that can be envisioned, explored, and pursued with passion. I want to collaborate with you to find clarity, purpose, and passion by helping you align your values, goals, and priorities, and cultivate authentic and effective leadership. I will provide structure and tools, and process will be a partnership effort. My approach uses a design-thinking, strengths-based, and whole-person approach that incorporates evidence-based practices to help you unlock and maximize your potential, leverage your strengths, cultivate innovative thinking, and optimize your well-being.
