A Lifelong Learner & Transformational Coach
A Lifelong Learner & Transformational Coach
As an ICF-PCC, Professional Certified Master Coach, I specialize in Holistic Mental Fitness, Executive & Leadership Coaching, and Change Management Coaching - guiding individuals and organizations through meaningful transformation My career spans over 30 years across diverse industries, from entrepreneurship, design, marketing, hospitality, health, construction, parenting, nonprofits, and retail. This breadth of experience fuels my interdisciplinary approach to leadership development, team building, and personal growth coaching.
My passion for learning started early. At 16, I eagerly enrolled in community college, exploring a wide range of disciplines while working full-time. Over the years, I accumulated 130+ credits, valuing knowledge over a formal degree - until now. In 2024, I returned to university at 50, fully embracing the opportunity to complete my B.A. in Interdisciplinary Studies at California State Polytechnic, Humboldt, in May 2025. This journey has been nothing short of transformational, deepening my respect for education and reinforcing my commitment to continuous learning and growth.
Balancing academia, business leadership, and parenting a high school senior, I bring a unique, real-world perspective to coaching. My interdisciplinary background enables me to connect the dots between psychology, leadership, and change management, helping my clients navigate complexity with confidence and clarity.
This experience has been much more rewarding than I had imagined. The professors at Humboldt are inspiring and have created meaningful learning experiences. I have a newfound respect and appreciation for higher education.
Learning in a formal setting has motivated and inspired me to elevate my critical thinking and interdisciplinary approach to the next level in my career.
