I’m an executive coach and leadership development mentor who helps executives, entrepreneurs, and emerging leaders transform from “having so much potential” to respected industry leader … and even expert authority in a given field.
I’m here to tell you that you can turn your situation around. I’ve seen these situations transform for my clients.
They have a deep passion for wanting to step into the roles that are meant for them. I give them the tools to navigate these challenges so they can emerge stronger and more confident.
Maybe you’ve worked hard to get to where you are professionally. You know you’re ready for the next level — and want to step into that role to make your mark on a larger scale.
Or maybe you have a creative business idea that just needs to get off the ground. You have the idea but struggle with the small decisions — and you know once you get out of the weeds you’ll be able to drive growth and find your customers.
It’s not just about validation. Something deep inside you is telling you that you’re just as capable as anyone else to succeed at this level. You have goals and ambition, you know you can make a positive impact on the people around you, and you’re ready to make that a reality.
By my early 30’s I had what looked like the beginning of my dream career. I had just navigated into the marketing department of a large Fortune 500 company. I worked with people I liked and my ideas were getting noticed by decision-makers.
Everything changed during a corporate downsizing.
I had been told that my name came up through a computer error and I was effectively terminated.
Since this was a surprise, not only to me but also to my employer, we worked on a solution that included me coming back with my own business and working as a consultant to the company.
It opened up a whole new way of working.
That began an extremely profitable 13-year run as the owner of my own boutique consulting business. I focused on giving advice and guidance to executives in areas such as team building, project management, and strategic direction. All the while, I continued to learn the true impact of effective marketing and brand building.
I worked with some of the top people in these companies to remove siloed systems, create high performance teams, and help employees get on projects that let their skills and talents shine.
Before I knew it, I had helped numerous people get promoted, step into leadership positions, or even just find their true calling.
Pivoting my business and following my instinct has been a game-changer for me.
With full executive coach credentials and a focus on leadership development, I’ve been able to work with some of the biggest companies in the world, sharing what I do best.
They do the work and commit to change.
I help them solve problems in a way they had never considered before.
I show leaders like you how to communicate with power, set boundaries, manage difficult situations, and gain the confidence to find your voice and amplify it for maximum impact.
I’m proud to have logged over 300 coaching hours with ambitious entrepreneurs and driven executives to help them show up as the kind of decision-makers that lead with impact and make a difference in the world.
