Executive Coach

Lucky enough to live on a little creek off the Chesapeake Bay near Annapolis, Maryland, when I’m not working or hanging out with family or friends, I’m likely kayaking. On a good day, after my paddle, I float to a shady cove with a cup of tea and the newspaper—just right!

Summary and Highlights:

I am an executive leadership coach who believes that every person has the ability to live up to their greatest potential. My approach is a partnership where you decide where you want to go, and I help you chart the path and develop the steps to get there.
