Get to know me

If you told me years ago that I'd be coaching executives and corporate leaders through their biggest career transitions, I probably would have been surprised—not because I didn't believe in the work, but because my own path was non-linear. What I didn't know then was that every unexpected turn, from financial aid education to career counseling to Tesla's Austin factory, would become the foundation for how I coach today.

Most coaches talk about transformation like a list of ingredients to put in a blender. I've lived it—and more importantly, I've facilitated it at scale. I spent years as a career counselor helping students navigate their first professional steps, then moved into talent partnership where I saw firsthand how organizations fail (and succeed) at developing their leaders and highest performers. But it was at Tesla, working as a Senior People Development Partner in one of the most demanding operational environments in the world, where I truly learned what separates effective leadership from performative management.

I wasn't coaching from an ivory tower. I was on the manufacturing floor, building training programs that had to work under pressure, developing leaders who managed billion-dollar production lines, and creating feedback systems that actually changed behavior instead of collecting dust in HR files. I've interviewed, reviewed resumes, coached hundreds of employees through promotions and transitions, and watched what happens when companies invest in real development versus checking boxes.

That experience taught me something critical: most people don't know what coaching actually is. "Coaching" is not vague advice, Instagram quotes, or "manifestation" without strategy. My clients don't need someone to tell them they're amazing—they need frameworks that work, accountability that sticks, and someone who's actually built the systems they're trying to navigate.

Now I bring that operational rigor to individual coaching. Whether you're an executive trying to level up your leadership effectiveness, a corporate professional plotting your exit strategy, or an HR leader trying to build actual team capability (not just team-building exercises), I help you cut through the noise and focus on what produces results.

Your goals aren't just dreams, and I'm not just another life coach billing you without purpose. I've done the work, built the systems, and coached in environments where results actually matter. If you're ready for that level of partnership, let's talk.
