What Makes My Work Different:

 I see the pattern you're living before you name it. I track for the lie—the discrepancy between what you're saying and what your knowing knows.

I am insatiably curious and ask the questions that stop you in your tracks and open entirely new ways of seeing. I midwife the possibilities you can't yet name.

I hold your impossible as possible even when you can't.

And I bring both strategic precision and soulful presence—so you leave with clarity, courage, and your very next step.

I taught negotiation and collaboration at Stanford for a decade. I learned interdependence solo-parenting—learning to need and receive support.

I catalyzed global impact networks and studied under Donella Meadows at the Academy for Systems Change. I learned to shift from control to creating conditions during a six-year fertility journey.

I coach visionary leaders navigating unprecedented uncertainty and studied psychological development. 

Years ago, in the midst of fertility loss, a coach asked me one question that changed my life: "Can you create while grieving?" It opened something profound—I realized I didn't have to wait for the grief to be gone to begin again. I could hold both. Because I listened and created what I felt called to create, my daughter arrived just in time to overlap with my dad for twelve precious days. 

This is what I bring: a very personal understanding of what it means to lead when systems are collapsing and the future feels uncertain—through grief and growth, heartbreak and possibility. I bring the eagle's eye view to see patterns and full complexity, and the grounded presence to link arms with my clients, moment by moment.
