Coaching Philosophy

As an Integral Coach, I have enjoyed supporting a wide range of clients, from college students to tech entrepreneurs, marketing executives, professional athletes, construction workers, retail operators and HR managers. But I always strive to work with the human being at the core. My main focus is to meet you where you are along your journey, actively listen to your aspirations, gently challenge your assumptions, engage in courageous and meaningful dialogue, and creatively work toward the desired outcome. I draw upon a vast array of skills, resources and experiences collected over decades to provide a service that is comprehensive, multi-dimensional and tailored to each client’s needs. What matters to me in the end is that your light shines as bright as possible, whichever realm of life or specific endeavor you wish to focus on.
