What I believe….
Growth isn't possible without guts.
My Mission
My mission is to help people lead with guts, uncover their purpose, and define success their own terms.
My Vision
To create a movement of purpose-driven people who use their gifts and talents to build community, foster connection, and lift others up.
My Background
Traditional business background + HR expertise from the tech industry +
entrepreneurial spirit + passion for understanding people on a deep level =
Success advising thousands of clients ranging from mid-career
professionals to start-up founders to leaders of the C-suite
With over 15 years of experience in the dynamic world of HR at Fortune 500 tech powerhouses, I bring a wealth of insider knowledge to the table. As a top-rated "Career Guru" at Google and a trusted Career & Executive Advisor for a career transition and leadership advising firm in the San Francisco Bay Area, I've honed my skills to guide clients through successful - career transitions and leadership challenges.
What truly sets me apart is my fearless spirit of entrepreneurship—I launched my own advising business at the vibrant age of 30, driven by a burning passion to empower others on their path to reaching their full potential. The roots of my dedication to personal growth took hold even earlier, starting at the age of 25 when I sought out my own career & life coach.
Fun Facts About Me
First Love: Running was the first love of my life! I ran a 5k with my Dad at the age of 10 and I was totally smitten. At the age of 20, I ran my first marathon and have since ran a number of half marathons and 20ks.
Nature Lover: Due to different opportunities in my life, I have lived in 5 different states within the US (CA, CO, NE, WA, WI) and feel my spirit soars most in the mountains.
Lover of Silence: Meditation has been an integral part of my daily practice for the last 10 years. During the pandemic, I led weekly virtual meditation sessions at Google and have also led nature-based meditation groups outside of work.
Love Serving Others: Volunteering is central to how I define success. Mentoring young women, serving meals at a homeless shelter, caring for service dogs in training, and supporting those impacted by addiction have all reminded me that real leadership begins with service — and that purpose is found when we give.
Strengths I Bring To Advising……
Analytical Smarts + People Smarts
After spending 10+ years working with engineers in data-driven tech companies, I marry finely honed left-brain thinking with years of in-depth study of people, thanks to my background in advising and HR.
Truth Teller
If you are seeking candid feedback that will help you evolve as a human being, we will work well together. An effective coach is one who challenges your assumptions, highlights your areas of development, and tells you what others are thinking but may not have the courage to say.
Highly Sensitive Person
Due to being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), I am keenly attuned to the internal reality of others. My depth of processing can provide a thoughtful analysis and creative problem-solving approach to advising.
