I’m curious by nature and interested in what shapes how we think, work and relate to one another. I pay attention to what is being said, what may sit beneath it and the patterns that emerge over time. I’m comfortable staying with a question when there isn’t an immediate answer and following the conversation somewhere neither of us expected it to go.

My practice is inclusive of different ways of thinking, processing and experiencing the world. I draw on neuroscience, emotional intelligence, assessments and other tools when they add something useful, without losing sight of the person in front of me. I’ll ask questions, share what I’m noticing and challenge your thinking when it serves the work. What you do with what emerges is yours.

Before becoming a coach, I spent more than 20 years in senior HR roles across post-secondary, non-profit and private-sector organizations. That experience gave me an inside view of organizations — how decisions get made, how relationships and systems shape people’s experiences, and what it can be like to work and lead within them. Since moving into coaching, I’ve worked with more than 100 people across executive, leadership, professional and technical roles.

I hold an MBA from Saint Mary’s University, a Graduate Certificate in Executive Coaching and the PCC credential from the International Coaching Federation. I’m also a Certified NeuroTransformational Coach, with additional training and certification in emotional intelligence and leadership development.

You don’t stop being a person when you walk into work, and I don’t coach as though you do.
