My coaching practice

Over the past decade, I’ve coached some of the top minds in tech through their biggest career decisions—both in my personal and professional network. I know the ins and outs of hiring systems because I’ve helped build them time and time again. I’ve advised founders on hiring decisions, designed interview processes, and trained hundreds of interviewers. I’ve even deepened my experience through multiple professional and personal coaching programs that equipped me with tools and frameworks I’ve integrated into my own practice.

Before transitioning into tech, I coached families in crisis through intense situations that most of society will never witness up close—both as a caseworker for Child Protective Services and then with a therapeutic foster care agency. I even supported individuals with no safety net as they escaped domestic violence and rebuilt their lives from the ground up.

Feeling stuck in your career or trapped in a toxic work environment might not be an immediate crisis—but the longer you stay in limbo, the more it wears you down. It drains your energy, chips away at your confidence, and makes you question your own worth. Over time, your vision for what’s possible can start to shrink until you convince yourself that this is all there is.

And the scariest part? If you don’t take control, months turn into years, and that sense of being stuck becomes your new normal. Deep down, you know that staying in a job for the paycheck isn’t just costing you time—it’s costing you your energy, your confidence, and your shot at the life you actually want.

For nearly 20 years, coaching has been the common thread in my diverse career journey. Now, I’m leveraging my experience to help ambitious professionals make bold, intentional moves and create a future they’re truly excited about.

If this resonates with you, know that you don’t have to stay stuck. Whether it’s a new role, a new company, or an entirely new path, I’m here to be your coach, cheerleader, and biggest fan. Together, we’ll get clear on what you really want, dismantle the limiting beliefs holding you back, strategize how to overcome challenges, and build a personalized roadmap that will have you feeling excited about the next 5-10 years of your life—and beyond!

I only work with professionals who are ready to show up and do the work. Because as much as I’d love to, I can’t do this for you. And even if I could, I wouldn’t—because you need this experience to grow into the next version of yourself.

If you’re ready to take the first step toward writing your next chapter with intention, you’re in the right place.

My personal journey of reinvention

I grew up in Indiana with a conservative family where stability was the goal. Get good grades. Get a degree. Get a respectable job. Work hard. Play it safe.

I followed the plan—at first. I started my career in social work, helping families navigate complex challenges. It was meaningful work, but it drained me. The low pay, the broken systems, the constant burnout. I felt trapped.

So I did something drastic.

I quit my job, sold my house and everything I owned, moved into a trailer, and left Indiana with no clear plan—just the certainty that I was meant for more.

The RV trailer I lived in for nearly 3 years.

That leap eventually led me to San Francisco, where I rebuilt my life and career from the ground up. I pivoted into a completely new industry, helping fast-growing tech startups scale their teams. I climbed the ranks, made multiple six figures, and built a name for myself in an industry I hadn’t even known existed a few years prior. I had finally “made it.”
