About
​For nearly two decades, I’ve partnered with senior leaders as a trusted advisor and executive coach, guiding them through growth, transition, and high-stakes decisions.
I work at the intersection of leadership, strategy, and communication - helping leaders clarify their thinking, elevate executive presence, and drive disciplined action when it matters most.
Grounded in experience across corporate, nonprofit, academic, and government environments, I bring a practical understanding of how organizations truly operate - and how leadership decisions shape outcomes.

My Approach
My work spans executive coaching, leadership development, strategic facilitation, keynote speaking, and high-impact leadership programs. While the formats differ, the standard does not.
​
I take a practical, hands-on approach. Leadership is visible in execution: in how decisions are made, how priorities are communicated, how teams are aligned, and how leaders perform when the stakes are high.
Effective leadership is not accidental. It is built, through disciplined thinking, candid feedback, and deliberate practice.
The work is grounded in real business pressures - growth targets, organizational change, stakeholder expectations, and visible performance. I focus on the decisions you must make, the conversations you must lead, and the moments that shape credibility.
While the work is disciplined and outcome-focused, it is also engaging and dynamic. I bring energy, candor, and presence to every room whether coaching one-on-one or leading from the stage.
​
Across every format, the focus remains the same: strengthen decision-making, sharpen communication, and align action with results.

A Personal Note
Over the years, I’ve seen that even highly capable leaders can underperform in visible moments, not because they lack intelligence or drive, but because they lack structured preparation and candid feedback.
That gap is where I focus my work.
Leadership is demanding. Performance matters. And with discipline, energy, and clear standards, leaders rise to the level required.
