As a neurodivergent thinker and follower of Jesus, I’m driven by core values of curiosity, integrity and excellence.

I believe that all people are designed for a purpose, and helping people step into their unique strengths brings individual joy and freedom along with organizational success.

With nearly two decades of store and district management success in corporate leadership with Starbucks, I understand the unique challenges of leading teams and supporting organizational goals all while creating a meaningful life aside from work that aligns with one’s personal values.

Whether engaging groups in organizational visioning and team building, or inspiring individuals in strengths assessment and personal development, I infuse my passion for people and commitment to quality coaching for impactful outcomes.
