About

I’m a leadership coach, consultant, and facilitator who helps values-driven CEOs and senior leaders build high-performing teams that step up, not just show up. With a background in organizational leadership, talent development, and systems change, I equip executives with the mindset, strategies, and tools to lead with confidence—without carrying the weight alone.

​

Before launching my coaching and consulting practice, I spent 15 years in public education and nonprofit leadership, most recently as a Managing Director at Leading Educators, where I partnered with school systems to strengthen leadership and instructional practices. Prior to that, I led district-wide teacher leadership and professional development initiatives at DC Public Schools, shaping policies that impacted thousands of educators and students. I began my career as a sixth-grade English teacher in South Texas, where I was a finalist for the Sue Lehmann Award for Excellence in Teaching.

​

A Penn State Schreyer Honors College graduate, I bring the problem-solving instinct of a decision-maker, the adaptability of a nonprofit leader, and the curiosity of a coach.

 

A northeasterner by birth and at heart, I now live in Columbia, SC where I miss winter but enjoy fair-weather mornings with a women’s running group, channel my competitive energy into learning to play tennis, and drive my three young kids all over town in a “cool” minivan.
