Empowering Leadership Transformation

I want to help you discover your areas for leadership development, maximize your strengths, build effective work environments for your teams, and help you champion success throughout your organization or business.

As an executive coaching and leadership consultant with over 20 years of experience in the banking and finance industry, I love helping you crystallize your vision and develop a top-performing, world-class team.

I’m known as an enthusiastic, results-driven business maven with a collaborative coaching style. My clients recognize me as an agent of change, whether from the powerful changes that come from an increase in self-confidence or the changes that come with strategizing plans with achievable outcomes. I specialize in holding the flashlight, so your hands are available to do the work.
