I started my career as a licensed psychologist and discovered coaching over 20 years ago – I’ve been doing that ever since. You can read about my credentials and training below but what I really want you to know is that I love helping people create and own their lives. I just love it when somebody is discovering who they are, what they want and really taking the risk to go for it.

I love creating a powerful, transformational process that moves my clients toward true success—on their terms— in career, in relationships, and in life.

My specialties are LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT COACHING, MENTAL FITNESS COACHING AND coaching supervision.

More about me

I’m Midwest-born and bred, but I studied on the East Coast and work with clients across the country and around the globe. I’m a yoga aficionado, daily walker, wife to a guy I met when I was 17, and a Mom to adult-children and Berger Picard dog. I love to travel with family, especially to Spanish-speaking countries, Colorado or anywhere we can bike, hike, nordic ski or swim.
