HI, IT’S NICE TO MEET YOU
I am The Practicing Practitioner.
I’m a coach, facilitator and organization development consultant (also known as a practitioner). I work with individuals, groups and organizations to help you find the tools you need to make progress towards your goals.
Progress takes practice. That’s where I come in. I help people practice the things they need to practice so they can do the things they want to do. This might look like an individual navigating a career change, a team doing a two-day strategy session, or an organization navigating a challenging transition.
I am a seasoned professional with twenty years in strategy, marketing, communications and change management.
I draw from theory and research and then translate those concepts into approachable and actionable tools. Key components of my approach are growth mindset, appreciative intelligence, emotional intelligence, working with difference and unlocking innovation.
I have training in facilitation, coaching and diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility (DEIA). I am currently pursuing a Masters in Organization and Knowledge Management from the Schar School of Policy at George Mason University, targeting graduation in May, 2025. I am also pursuing my Associate Certified Coach (ACF) from the International Coaching Federation (ICF) targeting completion in summer, 2025.
