About me

I'm a certified professional coach with a background in health & well-being, education and mindfulness.

I bring an awareness of cross cultural ideas, beliefs about health and education and insights to shape creative ways of learning, expanding and transforming. I believe everyone has the ability to grow and develop.

Initially working with my own children, I have helped students and parents go through the college application process. I co-founded Family College Coach to support parents in empowering their children through relationships, life skills and a growth mindset.

Transition and change are an opportunistic time to pause and reflect, build relationships, develop good communication skills, improve self-management, conflict management, and resiliency.
