I spent years living in my head — engineering logic, professional success, and a sense that something essential was missing. I know what it’s like to perform who you are instead of living it. Coaching brought me back to my body, my intuition, and myself. Now I help others cut through the noise and live from the inside out.

I am a late-identifying autistic mama to three neurodivergent self-led learners. I support parents veering off beaten paths (by choice or necessity) to tune into their unique families and values and to create more alignment, ease, and joy in their lives.
I coach women navigating career change and life transitions. I’m a certified coach, mindfulness teacher, and yoga instructor with 35 years in financial services leadership. My approach integrates real-world experience with coaching tools and mindfulness practices to create clarity, purpose, and values-aligned lives.
I have been working in the philanthropic, non profit, social and environmental justice field for over 18 years and I have learned throughout these years the importance of taking the time to connect to yourself and reaching out to get support when needed. Feel free to connect with me to find out more about my offerings!
