Who am I? I’m a certified life and leadership coach for individuals and organizations. I support individuals, managers, and C-suite leaders in a variety of situations and positions—who work for both non-profit and for-profit organizations. I focus on helping people achieve their largest and most expansive lives.
I am a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) through the International Coach Federation and a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach® (CPCC) through Co-Active Training Institute (CTI), the world’s leading and longest-standing provider of coaching training. I am also a trained as an Organizational and Relationship Systems Coach (ORSC) and certified in the Leadership Circle Profile and Collective Leadership Assessment, all powerful tools that can help you strengthen systems and understand the leadership effectiveness, strengths, and gaps of any individual or team.
Through my work as senior consultant with DBD Group, I also help leaders and organizations address strategic and operational challenges. My particular focus is executive and team coaching, leadership and culture, strategic planning and strategic thinking, facilitating partnership and collaborations, and board development and governance.
Prior to my work as a consultant, I worked in non-profit operations for 10 years, including as chief operating officer. I also spent 10 years in the field of systems thinking and organizational learning, serving as senior project manager and publications director at Pegasus Communications. I have also served as adjunct faculty in marketing, business communications, and creative writing at Southern New Hampshire University and New England College.
My BA is from the University of New Hampshire and I also have an MFA in Creative Writing from Emerson College. For fun, I enjoy writing, playing competitive doubles tennis, studying whales, hiking the White Mountains of NH, traveling, and yoga.
