Over the last 15 years, I’ve seen a lot. I’ve worked at a Fortune 100 company, a young company in the midst of going public, and companies just getting off the ground. I’ve worked at non-profits and for-profits, and the US government. I’ve worked on the West Coast, the East Coast and abroad. I’ve been a founder, a manager and an Individual Contributor. More recently, I’ve mentored start-up executives from the earliest stages of their business journeys. These experiences at the intersection of Technology, Entrepreneurship, and Social Impact, give me a unique perspective on what it takes to build a vital and impactful career.
As I reflected on the things I loved doing in the jobs I've had - I realized that sitting across the table from the people I worked with was my favorite part. Helping them navigate their day to day challenges and connect their work to a meaningful career path was something I really excelled at. So I decided to make that my job - coaching people to build careers that satisfy their ambitions and fit their lives.
To complement my professional experience, I trained to become a coach through the Co-Active Training Institute - a well-respected Coach Training organization that has been training coaches for 25 years. As part of that training I am certified as a coach through the ICF (International Coaching Federation).
