Member Bio
I am a leadership development professional with more than fourteen years of experience helping people, teams, organizations and communities grow. I coach individuals at all levels, in all sectors, in cities all across the country. I also design and lead dynamic and thoughtful learning experiences that push, stretch, and challenge leaders to be the very best versions of themselves—and to unleash their capacity to help others do the same.
I have a B.A. in Health and Humanity and Visual Culture from the University of Southern California, a M.S. in Teaching from Pace University, and a M.A. in Educational Leadership as a part of the Broad Residency in Urban Education. I am certified trainer for the Vital Smarts Influencer model, a powerful and portable approach to drive behavior change within small teams and across entire organizations. As a graduate of the Teleos Coach Development Program, I am in the process of completing the International Coach Federation (ICF) certification. Several extraordinarily leadership masters, including Dr. Linda Belans, Dr. Dolly Chugh, Dr. Warren Bennis, and Dr. David Maxfield, have directly informed my approach to leadership development as mentors and champions. I fell in love with the process of helping people grow as a middle school science teacher in New York City.
From the aspiring manager to the experienced executive, I have facilitated learning experiences for thousands of leaders and have coached over 1,200 hours. A selection of recent clients includes Deloitte, Cornell University, Network of Executive Women Summit, Buckley Country Day School, The Lawrenceville School, KIPP School Leadership Programs, KIPP Leadership Design Fellowship, Alpha Public Schools, Teach For America, Rural School Leadership Academy, Spring Branch Independent School District, Schoolzilla, and Education Super Highway.
