Coaching and Consultation

As a coach and consultant, I work at the intersection of professional, personal growth and community development—with individuals and groups, visionaries and community leaders, CEOs and nonprofit boards, artists and other complex individuals seeking to know their own minds and bring their highest potential to any situation.

I like to ask questions.

How do we fulfill our purpose—for ourselves, our organizations and businesses, our families and communities in the face of the considerable challenges we meet in our lives and work? How do we move past our fears to connect with the people and resources that can together fulfill this purpose? What is possible when we focus on creating what is possible rather than reacting to what is wrong?

…our answers lie behind the perceived problem.
