I’ve spent nearly two decades working at the intersection of people, leadership, and real life.

 

Most of my career was spent inside organizations — often as a one-person HR department — supporting founders, executives, managers, and teams through growth, change, and uncertainty. Being embedded in the work gave me a front-row seat to how quickly people dynamics can become overwhelming, even for thoughtful, capable leaders who care deeply about doing things well.

 

What I learned early on is this:

most leadership and life challenges aren’t caused by a lack of tools or effort — they’re caused by a lack of clarity.

 

Pressure builds. Signals get crossed. Priorities blur. People carry more than they realize, and the quality of thinking suffers.

 

Today, my work focuses on helping leaders and individuals slow things down just enough to think clearly again — to make sense of what’s actually happening, notice patterns that are easy to miss from the inside, and move forward with greater steadiness and intention.

 

I don’t approach this work as a fixer, an expert with all the answers, or a rule-enforcer.

I approach it as a thinking partner.

 

That means listening carefully, reflecting what I’m noticing, asking orienting questions, and offering perspective or options when they’re genuinely useful — without taking over decisions or telling people what they should do.

 

While my background is rooted in HR and people strategy, my role today is intentionally broader — and lighter — than traditional advisory work. I work with the whole person, because leadership doesn’t exist in a vacuum, and work doesn’t stay neatly contained within job descriptions or job titles.

 

I work especially well with:

 

• Thoughtful leaders navigating responsibility, growth, or uncertainty

• Individuals in moments of transition, reevaluation, or decision fog

• Small teams and nonprofits that care deeply about culture, meaning, and how people experience their work

 

 

Outside of work, I’m a lifelong learner and creative. I love cooking, traveling, reading, and hands-on projects — from gardening to home redesigns. I’m also a mom to two young children, which deeply shapes how I think about energy, capacity, and what sustainable success actually looks like.

 

If you’re looking for a calm, experienced perspective to help you think clearly, navigate complexity, and find steadier footing — without pressure, performance, or forced conclusions — you’re in the right place.
