For many years, my life has been shaped by a deep passion for helping people discover their purpose and move forward with confidence.

My journey took a powerful turn in 1993 when I received a life-saving kidney and pancreas transplant. That experience gave me a second chance at life, and it strengthened my desire to use that gift to help others navigate their own challenges and opportunities.

Later, I was blessed with two miracle sons and had the incredible privilege of homeschooling them from preschool through high school graduation. During that time, many families began reaching out for guidance with curriculum choices, academic planning, and the college application process. I quickly saw how overwhelming these decisions could be for both parents and students.

What became clear to me is that many young people are expected to choose a path for their future without truly understanding their own strengths, personality, and natural gifts.

As a retired M.A. psychologist and certified life and academic coach, I now use tools like the Maxwell Student/Career DISC Report to help students gain clarity about who they are and where they are best suited to thrive.

I created this course to give students and families the guidance, tools, and confidence they need to make thoughtful decisions about their future — and to move forward with clarity, purpose, and direction.

For more than 35 years, I’ve had the privilege of teaching and coaching tennis, working with students of all ages and skill levels. Throughout my career, one thing has always stood out to me: sports can teach far more than technique — they can shape character, leadership, and confidence.

As a Maxwell Leadership Certified Coach, Speaker, and Trainer, as well as a USPTA certified tennis professional, I’ve always believed that developing life skills is just as important as developing athletic ability. That’s why leadership and personal growth are a part of everything I teach.

My own journey began as a student athlete at the University of Michigan, where I played tennis while earning a B.S. in Chemical Engineering. I understand the pressures that come with balancing academics, athletics, and personal growth. That experience showed me how important it is for young people to be prepared for the challenges of college before they arrive.

Over the years, I’ve helped many students prepare to play tennis at the collegiate level. But more importantly, I’ve helped them build the mindset, discipline, and leadership skills they need to succeed both on and off the court.

I created this program to help students develop the confidence, character, and life skills they need to step into college and the next stage of life fully prepared — not just as athletes, but as leaders.
