My Background

For over 20 years, I led teams in high-pressure federal environments as a Branch Chief at the U.S. Department of Agriculture. I managed multi-million-dollar operations, developed analysts and specialists, and learned what it takes to help people perform at their best—even in complex, demanding situations.

In 2020, I became a certified professional life coach because I wanted to focus entirely on helping people navigate the challenges that keep them stuck: burnout, career uncertainty, goal-setting struggles, and the everyday friction that prevents progress.

What I Bring to Coaching

My federal leadership experience taught me how to:

• Build accountability systems that actually work
• Use data and feedback to drive real improvement
• Lead with empathy while maintaining high standards
• Support people through transitions and setbacks

My coaching training gave me the frameworks to:

• Help clients identify what they really want
• Break down big goals into achievable steps
• Create sustainable behavior change
• Support emotional regulation and resilience

Who I Work With

I specialize in working with professionals and entrepreneurs who are:

• Recovering from burnout or overwhelm
• Navigating career transitions or restarts
• Struggling to reach goals despite good intentions
• Looking for structure, accountability, and genuine support

My Approach

I don't believe in one-size-fits-all coaching. Instead, I:

• Listen first, then build strategies around what works for YOU
• Focus on practical action, not just motivation
• Provide honest feedback and real accountability
• Celebrate progress while pushing for growth

Personal Note

I live in Estero, Florida, and work with clients remotely across the country. When I'm not coaching, I'm probably reading about psychology, working on digital tools for learners, or spending time with my family.
