“I want to empower people to live their most aligned lives, personally and professionally.”
Specialties include but not limited to:
The meat of my experience has been working with professionals and technical folks. I can level with you technically on your software and/or hardware experience as well as work across multiple industries.
Working to help folks transition to a completely new career by helping them connect past experiences to where they want to be, and why each person’s story is special, unique, and important.
Equipping new graduates from college and vocational/non-traditional education with real life skills needed to navigate and advocate for themselves in job searches, interviewing, on-boarding in new roles, negotiating salaries, and raises.
Work to uncover what each person’s values and true passions are and connect to their why, while releasing societal or family pressures. This is where the alignment comes in.

adidas, Adobe, Amazon, AWS, BuzzFeed, Cisco, Citizen’s Bank, Home Depot, IBM, Inuit, Kroger, Nike, Nordstrom, PayPal, Peloton, Ralph Lauren, Salesforce, SurveyMonkey, Walmart Labs to name a few.
What is coaching? What to expect?
“ICF defines coaching as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential. The process of coaching often unlocks previously untapped sources of imagination, productivity and leadership.
We all have goals we want to reach, challenges we’re striving to overcome and times when we feel stuck. Partnering with a coach can change your life, setting you on a path to greater personal and professional fulfillment.”
You have all the answers within you as you are creative resourceful and whole just as you are. Working with a coach just helps you tap into what you already know.
Coaching vs Therapy
My goal is to help you plant seeds and work with you to tend to them for growth, change, desired goals. I’m not a therapist, which is someone who works to remove all the weeds, and prepare the soil for healthy forward action. As an ICF credentialed coach, I’m here to help you move forward to achieve your desired outcomes. I’m not here to tell you what to do, I’m here to help you strategize to move forward and take the very brave and vulnerable steps forward to make change. It’s hard and it’s scary, but it absolutely is achievable!
Our Time Together:
Getting started in a coaching relationship, I want to get to know you, see if we’re a good fit and I offer a free intro session to do so which you could book here.
I’ll want to see why you’re seeking out coaching and if we continue forward, I’ll work with you to define the goals you want to achieve.
We will co-create what your goals are, how frequently we meet, and I will support you wherever you’re at to start making forward action. Please know goals are absolutely unique to each individual and there is never a one size fits all. I meet you where you’re at. Every single time we meet.
Then, off we go to achieve your goals, dreams, and desires!
Change Takes Time:
We have developed habits, inner critics, and are also pressured by societal, family, and cultural barriers. Neuropathways have been formed that feel safe, maybe work to make us stay operating in a comfort zone that feels scary to exist outside of. But, with a desire to create something new, we take the actions, try on new experiences, form new neuropathways, and get closer to our goals. Working with a coach can help you move through this, keep you accountable, strategize on ways to get there, and I would love to walk alongside you and shine light on your path to help you get there.
