I began my career in IT, navigating roles from programmer to project manager and even becoming a certified DBA in the Microsoft realm. After experiencing a downsizing, I sought more than just systems and code; I craved purpose. For the past 20 years, I've dedicated myself to transforming over 3,000 leaders and teams, empowering first-line managers to rise to VPs and CEOs, and fostering environments where teams thrive in trust and synergy. As a middle child, I resonate deeply with first-line managers, and my coaching helps them shift from pressure-driven identities to purpose-driven leadership. Whether I'm speaking, coaching, or hosting my podcasts, my mission is clear: to elevate managers from burden to brilliance, enabling them to lead with confidence and create lasting impact.
