Here’s what I know about you:
You are already successful, yet you’re under constant pressure to continue advancing as a professional and as a people leader.

I get it.
As a former executive myself, I was constantly focused on improving my performance and leadership skills while continuing to drive the business forward.
And the reason I thrived in my career was because I put in the effort to assess myself and align my internal values with my external environment.
If you’re anything like the successful leaders I’ve worked with, there are a few elements of your personal and professional performance that could use some attention.
See, your career should empower, inspire, and fulfill you, fueling your success. Yet, so many high performers, like you, struggle with communication issues, lack the confidence to show up authentically in the workplace, or are unsure how to lead their teams effectively.
Other leaders may just feel a general sense of unrest. They love their careers, but yet something doesn’t feel right, and they lack the understanding of how to reconnect with their true self and realize opportunities for growth and expansion.
Here’s a secret: You weren’t meant to go it alone.
Partnering with a coach helps to accelerate your professional performance.
But, it’s vital to find and work with a perfect-for-you coach (which is why you’re here reading this now, right?)
If you’re looking for a great executive coach, you want someone who:
- Understands the difference between coaching, consulting, mentoring, therapy, and advising
- Has leadership or executive-level business experience themselves
- Works as a professional, external coach serving executive-level clients
- Holds professional certifications and advanced training in coaching
- Invests in their own professional growth with a coach of their own
I am the right person to help you unleash the potential that’s already within you. Some of my career highlights include:
- Leadership and executive roles throughout my 25-year career at EDS, Kelly Services, Ford Motor Company, and Deloitte Consulting
- Serving over 540,000 Wolverine Alumni worldwide as an executive, leadership, and career coach at the University of Michigan
- Presenting my doctoral research entitled The Power of Relationships: Navigating the Dance of Change through Executive Coaching at Harvard University and Columbia University
- Engaging in an appointed research fellowship at Case Western Reserve University
- Publishing experience, including multiple published articles in Harvard Business Review Ascend, book chapters on executive coaching in academic journals and a forthcoming book entitled Leading With Heart: The Human Element of Business™
- Serving as adjunct faculty at the University of Michigan and teaching at Deloitte University where I coached over 700 rising leaders
