I am a strength-based leadership coach and a certified Real Colors Facilitator that uses a holistic approach to coaching. I support individuals in all stages of their career growth and personal development. I believe everyone is on a different path and it’s my job to create a coaching experience that blends both the social and emotional journey along with science-based fundamentals for successful outcomes. Businesses, organizations, teams and families thrive more and have higher well-being when they operate out of their natural strengths. Developing a "strengths perspective" opens up growth and development among individuals and businesses creating greater productivity and efficiency.

Encouraging Note: I have worked with early childhood teachers for fifteen years and I have witnessed all the wonderful and impactful work that you do every day for the children in your classroom and their families.
