I’ve always loved speaking, but what truly lights me up is connecting with an audience. My greatest joy comes from seeing people leave inspired, re-energized, and ready to create profound change in their lives and work. For me, it’s never about simply giving a talk. It’s about creating an experience that sparks lasting transformation. I’m excited about the next stages where I can continue inspiring others to grow, lead, and thrive.
The first coach I ever met was at a networking event in 2000 and I instantly knew that becoming a certified coach was the next step in my career. I was drawn to coaching because it focused on creating sustainable transformations and helping others achieve their goals, whereas psychotherapy (my former career) centered on fixing the past.
Specializing in business and executive coaching felt like the perfect fit for my dual Master’s degrees in Psychology and Business, along with my professional background as a Brand Manager at Procter & Gamble and co-owner of a consulting firm.
Over the past 25 years, I’ve coached and mentored business owners and leaders to boost productivity, motivation, and retention by addressing the human side of performance.
The Enneagram is a powerful personality typing system that helps people understand what truly motivates them, why they behave the way they do, and how they can unlock their full potential. I first discovered the Enneagram in 2003, but it wasn’t until 2006, when I was correctly typed, that I realized its life-changing power.
Understanding my type helped me finally break free from patterns that had been holding me back in both relationships and business. I gained clarity on why I had been drawn to toxic relationships and learned to shift the behaviors that were undermining me. The same insights transformed my business, allowing me to create work that truly resonated with my heart. No more pushing for success at the expense of my wellbeing. Unlocking my type unleashed my innate brilliance, helped me manifest my soulmate, and empowered me to step fully into my purpose.
As an Enneagram expert, I now help audiences, individual clients, and teams harness the Enneagram Advantage to increase self-awareness, improve relationships, and achieve success with less struggle. Learn more about the Enneagram here (Link to Enneagram page).

I’m very happily married to Bill, my soulmate. Funny enough, we went to the same junior high, but it took 38 years for our paths to cross again and for us to get married. It was well worth the wait. In my free time, I love social dancing (salsa, bachata, and east-coast swing) and hiking in the beautiful mountains of Colorado, where I’m lucky enough to call home. Recently, I’ve also started painting the stunning vistas I discover on my hikes.
