My coaching and counseling practice is built on 15+ years of experience across learning design, product management, and user research — in corporate, academic, nonprofit, and startup environments. I've sat inside the systems my clients are trying to navigate, which is exactly why I do this work differently.

I started my career driven by passion.

At my core, I believe that learning is a fundamental right and that everyone deserves access to the resources they need to thrive, not just survive. This led me to pursue my master's in Organizational Development and Workplace Learning, and to lead teams at edtech companies like edX, Pluralsight, and Year Up. I believed the deal: work hard, get results. I did the work. The deal didn't hold.

I climbed the ladder.

After graduating, I spent most of my working life navigating systems and environments that simply weren't built for me. Work became a way for me to prove my competence, develop self-worth, and find meaning. It worked; until it didn't anymore. I made it to VP at the age of 29. I often felt the isolating experience of being the only woman, the only person of color, or both, within teams and entire organizations. I carried the weight of having to constantly prove my value. It wasn't sustainable, and it didn't leave time for what mattered most. My body eventually forced the wake-up call my mind kept avoiding.

I transitioned to coaching in 2023.

After working with my own coach, I decided to walk away from the career that looked great on paper. I opened my career coaching practice. Since then, I've worked with thousands of clients who are exploring what work truly means to them, and making the hard choices around whether to stay, leave, or design something for themselves.
