As an executive coach, I simply want to see you win in your career; to regularly feel a sense of satisfaction, engagement, and pride while experiencing deep value in your work and the contributions you make. Even as a coach, I am a researcher that will pose questions to assist you in self-discovery and voicing to your deepest leadership aspirations, so that I can support you in career-planning that leads to courageous career growth. As a woman of color who was a first-gen and working class college student, I am excited to work with ambitious, inclusive leaders.
