About me
About me
Moving around in the early part of my life has given me a broad perspective and innate curiosity about people and the triumphs and tragedies of life, as we know it. Originally, I grew up in the Great Lakes area of Ontario, Canada,then moved with my parents to The Bay Area of San Francisco, California. Currently I live in Northwestern British Columbia where I initially came for work in the laboratory at the local hospital. I have been a front-line worker, a middle manager, and a clinical researcher in both cancer and HIV.
In the late ‘90s, I was introduced to coaching, took training and launched, in 2000, a new facet of work and life experience. Entering back into the healthcare workforce in the mid-2000’s I also continued to run my coaching practice. Since 2018 I have consistently focused in on professional coaching and coach clients in life, career and small business.
Over the years I have had the honor of coaching first responders, health professionals, business executives, small business owners, and clients from all walks of life. The goal of wanting to understand and develop rapport with others loves, goals, ups and downs and the quest for purpose is the cornerstone of my practice. To support you in self-discovery, goal setting, achievement and applaud you as you test your wings and finally fly. Coaching clients by phone has helped me have a home-based business and reach clients across North America.
