Leadership Community Builder | Executive, Leadership, Career Coach | Executive and Leadership Development | Get Unstuck and Be the Leader of Your Career and Self | The Executive and The LFY Revolution Podcasts

High-achieving leaders don’t hire a coach because they’re struggling. They hire a coach because they’re ready to operate at a higher level, as leaders, as professionals, and as humans.

You have the accomplishments, the title, the experience. But you know you’re capable of more:
• more clarity in how you think and decide
• more confidence in who you are and how you lead
• more control over your time, energy, and direction
• more consistency, presence, and stability
• more leadership from the inside out

You’re not looking for generic leadership development. You’re looking to become the most important leader in your own life, to lead yourself with the clarity, confidence, and control required to operate at your highest level.

That’s the real work.

I help CEOs, founders, and senior leaders become the most important leader in their life, so they can lead themselves with clarity, confidence, and control, and ultimately become Fearless Leaders in their work and life. And once they do, they’re fully equipped to lead others even more effectively.

My coaching blends:
• executive leadership development
• identity and behavior transformation
• self-leadership psychology
• strategic decision-making and direction

It’s deep work delivered in a grounded, practical, leadership-ready way. This is not “personal development.” It’s the leadership work most leaders skip, and the work that changes everything.

Who I Work With

I’ve coached 500+ leaders from Amazon, Google, DoorDash, Mayo Clinic, the CDC, and high-growth organizations across tech, healthcare, finance, manufacturing, government, and private equity.

Leaders partner with me when they’re ready to:
• lead themselves with more intention and discipline
• elevate their identity, presence, and leadership impact
• make clearer, faster decisions
• build unshakeable confidence
• take control of their direction and personal leadership
• step into the bolder, more powerful version of themselves

Leaders Rise Coaching | Founder

Coaching is not just about adding new skills—it’s about finding an authentic style of leadership that lines up with your goals and vision.

Coaching isn’t one-size-fits-all—every session is tailored to you because no two leaders are the same.

With over 25 years of experience in business, human resources, and leadership coaching, I’ve seen how isolating and overwhelming leadership can feel. The pressure to perform, decide, and deliver often leaves leaders without the support they need. 

That’s where I come in.

I work with ambitious, driven senior leaders and executives ready to step into their next chapter with clarity and purpose. Whether developing a strategic plan, tapping into emotional intelligence, or shifting to a growth mindset, my approach goes beyond the surface to help you build lasting success.

Our work together isn’t about checking boxes or chasing quick wins. It’s about aligning your actions with your vision and uncovering a style of leadership that feels authentic, powerful, and sustainable.
