Founders & Executives: Are you leading from alignment — or armor?
Let coaching be your catalyst for desirable change
When Success is Not Enough
Executive Coaching
High achievers and founders often succeed through sheer intelligence, grit, and pressure—but those same strengths can harden into habits that cost clarity, integrity, and connection. I help leaders shed the armor and reconnect with themselves and authenticity. From this place we regain our agency and authority.
I offer executive coaching for founders, senior operators, and high achievers ready to refine their approach and lead without burning out.
WHO I AM FOR:
I am for senior leaders, founders, and high-capacity professionals who are outwardly competent and inwardly aware that the way they have been operating no longer fits.
Not broken, not lost, just no longer willing to lead from armor, momentum, or expectation.
ASK YOURSELF:
Have you arrived at a moment where success has not delivered the satisfaction expected?
Is your nervous system signaling stress rather than security?
Would continuing as-is require betraying something essential to your wellbeing?
I work best with people who value integrity over image, can tolerate honest reflection, and are ready to take responsibility for the internal drivers behind their external decisions.
I am not for those looking for optimization, performance hacks, or someone to tell them what to do next.
The outcome of our work is not reinvention, but realignment:
with core values, grounded presence, clarity of purpose, and from a leadership stance that is sustainable because it is authentic.

My background
As a former biotech exec, I draw from over 30 years of experience in research medicine with a focus in neurology. Through my career I've worked extensively with the U.S. Military and corporate America. I am a serial entrepreneur, public speaker, and serve in many mentoring roles for emerging entrepreneurs and leaders. My formal training as a Coach includes Life, Leadership, and Wellbeing certifications. Through a dynamic career of risks, rewards, and even failures, my coaching style is a unique and direct approach that combines lived experience and evidence-based practices. My clients experience substantial and sustainable results.
My Approach
I work with people who carry real responsibility and want to think, decide, and lead without armor—especially when the stakes are high and the maps are no longer reliable
In pursuit of that life, we frequently get bogged down with limiting beliefs and a hypercritical inner voice that just gets louder the longer it goes unmanaged. These inner conversations create our 'Personal Operating System'.
My approach is centered around helping my clients cultivate self-awareness, realign with their core values, confirm the appropriate goals to live and act in alignment, and create actionable steps towards achievement. Effectively and efficiently, our work will allow you to rewrite your Personal Operating System. I provide a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients to identify, explore, and revise old rules that stand in between the life they have and the one they truly want.
My Services
I offer one-on-one executive coaching packages, motivational speaking, and corporate workshops.
My areas of expertise include executive leadership, founder challenges, work-life balance, entrepreneurship, transitions, and wellbeing.
