My Journey

My interest in helping others started from an early age. When I was in high school I enrolled in a psychology course because I wanted to understand others better and learn how I could help them overcome challenges. Fast forward a couple of years later, that same passion for helping others led me to pursue psychology within higher education. I went on to earn my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Old Dominion Univeristy, my Master’s degree in Human Resources Development from Towson University and my PhD in Business Psychology from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology. I truly believe that investing in our personal and professional development is what enables us to realize our full potential.

Professionally, I have held various roles within Human Resources (HR). I have worked as a recruiter reviewing hundreds of resumes as well as interviewing candidates. I have also served in a generalist capacity providing overall HR support to an organization and its employees. I have trained hiring managers on various interviewing techniques and coached employees through career related issues. My background in human resources has enabled me to understand the unique challenges that individuals face within their careers. This experience motivated me to create a business that would help others navigate and overcome their career related challenges.

I also have an international background which has increased my cultural competency in engaging with diverse individuals. I have lived in Tanzania, Kenya, Cambodia, Eritrea, Zimbabwe as well as the United States and have travelled to 14 countries. I enjoy interacting with different people as I believe we all have unique stories and contributions that we bring to this world.

My ultimate purpose as a coach is to empower my clients with the knowledge and skills to achieve meaningful results long after our engagement is complete. I utilize principles rooted in psychology in order facilitate change with my clients. I believe that self-development is a continuous journey and one that does not have to be embarked upon alone. Through guided interventions, I work with my clients to assist them in the process of self-discovery. I support my clients in understanding where they are and guide them to where they want to be.

When I’m not coaching I enjoy spending time with family and friends, traveling, getting lost in a great book and yoga.

I look forward to working with you!
