AboutWhen I reflect on what truly inspires me, it is the limitless potential that every human being possesses. I care very deeply about people and honoring their unique humanity. The complexity of life can be both overwhelming and beautiful. As a coach and consultant, I serve as a guide and confidant supporting people and organizations in their growth and development to achieve success based upon their own unique definition.
For over three decades I have invested in the development of people. My early career was dedicated to serving others at not-for-profit organizations where I developed an astute understanding of empathy and compassion. These experiences highlighted for me how each person possesses strengths that can foster their resilience and inspire perseverance, even in the face of great adversity.
Career design, experiential learning, leadership development, and organizational behavior were the focus of my tenure in higher education as faculty and assistant dean. As a department head, human resources administrator, and recruiter, I impacted the development and implementation of strategic plans, HR policies, benefits, and performance evaluation programs and I continuously develop my expertise in career theory and design and workforce and workplace transformation.
Embracing my love of learning and inspired by my desire to optimize how I coach and advise, I earned a Master of Applied Positive Psychology degree from the University of Pennsylvania. Positive psychology, the scientific study of well-being, uses a strengths-based approach to empower people and organizations in elevating confidence, reducing distractions, discovering opportunities, achieving meaningful goals, and finding connection.
I find great joy in everyday moments of connection – cooking with my husband, laughing with friends, being present with my family, and supporting my clients. It would be wonderful to connect with you!
