Engineer. Executive. Entrepreneur. Coach. Author.

As an executive-turned-coach with a spiritual twist, I have brought my unique blend of creative, strategic thinking with tactical, operational skills and global experience in helping my clients innovate and realize their professional and personal success.

I coach and advise clients on a breadth of topics, from work and business challenges to personal issues, across all sizes of business, from large corporations to small businesses to early-stage startups. I have experience across a variety of industries from technology to healthcare to consumer goods to manufacturing to services and international coaching experience across North America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America.

Whether it is gaining clarity on a business strategy or managing challenging peers, over the past six years, I have supported my clients in growing their business and income, uncovering and aligning to their deeper mission, getting their passion projects off the ground, selling their businesses, writing books, making movies, launching products, getting promotions, negotiating deals, all the while improving their leadership skills, overall health and sense of well-being.
