Coaching at the intersection of work + life
I coach at the intersection of work and life, helping people find joy in their careers while staying true to who they are. My approach is rooted in structure, accountability, and connection, creating a space where clients can feel supported and challenged in equal measure.
My career journey spans nearly 25 years, from recruiting and talent development to coaching. Along the way, I’ve worn many hats: recruiter, manager, and talent strategy leader. I’ve hired, let people go, built strategies, and helped people grow. Through it all, I’ve seen the power of personal stories in shaping our work lives—and I know how to turn those stories into strengths.
My coaching philosophy is simple: meet clients where they are and help them discover their own true north. We’re all works in progress, and my role is to help you evolve with intention. If you’re ready to align your work with your life and pursue the career and life you deserve, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. Let’s get to work.

How does career coaching work?My coaching practice is highly customized. Typically a client will start with one service and then go from there. Some clients need minimal support in the form of a few calls and guidance. Others prefer a more structured plan. I approach each client individually and create strategies that fit your budget, style and schedule.
