About Me
I’m a Master Certified Coach, author, and speaker with a deep passion for personal empowerment. My background spans leadership consulting, coaching, and group facilitation — all rooted in helping people shift their thinking and unlock their full potential.
I believe that when you change your thinking, you change your life. I’ve lived this truth myself and now guide others through the same process. My role is to create a safe, supportive space for reflection, awareness, and meaningful transformation — whether in life, relationships, or business.
I’ve had the privilege of working with teams and leaders at Google, PwC, Southwest Airlines, FDA, Madewell, and more. I’ve also authored two books and contributed to platforms like Forbes and Inc.
If you’re ready to think differently and lead with intention, I’m here to walk with you.
