I'm an Associate Certified Coach who believes the best conversations happen when you're genuinely uncertain what to say next. I create that space on purpose. People come to me when they feel stuck between who they are and who they want to be.

About me

I came to coaching through an unusual door: theater. Years of improvisation training taught me that the most powerful communication happens when you stop planning your response and actually listen. I got hooked on that feeling—the moment when someone hears themselves say something they've never articulated before.

I came to coaching through an unusual door: theater. Years of improvisation training taught me that the most powerful communication happens when you stop planning your response and actually listen. I got hooked on that feeling—the moment when someone hears themselves say something they've never articulated before. I completed my ACC certification through the International Coaching Federation and have spent the last five years working with young professionals navigating major life transitions—first jobs, career changes, graduate school decisions, relationship moves.

We'll spend our sessions in genuine conversation—not advice-giving, not problem-solving, just real exploration of what's actually going on with you. A lot of my clients initially expect me to give them answers, and they stay because they realize answers they discover themselves are the only ones that stick. You'll think more clearly about what you want, identify patterns that keep you stuck, and develop the ability to pause before reacting in ways you later regret. I work well with people who are intellectually curious, slightly skeptical of self-help platitudes, and tired of being told to just 'trust the process.' One client described working with me as 'having a thinking partner who makes everything less lonely.' Concrete outcomes include clearer decision-making, improved relationships (personal and professional), and a growing ability to act in alignment with your own values even when it's uncomfortable.
