About Coaching

For many, properly identifying professional goals and acquiring the skills necessary to achieve those goals can be daunting and frustrating. For others, the goal may be clear but the skills and habits required to get there may need help or attention. I believe a coach should be an objective advocate who is open to considering possibilities, able to suspend judgment, and a personable, trustworthy and curious supporter of the client.


I approach coaching as a catalytic relationship that is designed for the acceleration of development. I believe coaching honors the client as the expert in his/her life and work. The coach provides structure, support and feedback to help the client define and achieve professional/personal goals faster and more effectively.
