Guiding you to growth, clarity, and lasting success

I’m passionate about helping individuals unlock their potential, overcome challenges, go further and achieve more within their profession or life. My coaching philosophy is rooted in the belief that everyone has the power to grow, and that with the right tools and mindset, you can achieve the life you truly desire.

With over 25 years’ experience as the Global Vice President of Human Resources with Maui Jim Sunglasses, I had the privilege of leading a successful team of Talent professionals and guiding employees from multiple cultures, helping them identify their goals and create actionable strategies for success.
