    I am a business coach and strategist who works with startup leaders to melt the barriers that keep getting in their way and to move beyond them once and for all. I work with teams to improve collaboration and cohesion. My specialty is one-on-one, highly customized coaching sessions where each individual feels seen, heard and recognized so that they can dig deeper into becoming the most powerful version of themselves as a person and a leader. With over 20 years of leadership experience in high growth startups, human capital and finance, I have worked in Fortune 500 companies around the world and domestically. My knack helping people to see new horizons and possibilities for themselves and their teams. “Whatever you help us with, things just get better” is a quote from a client that sums it up!
