Unlock the Power of Your Natural Intelligence

In the age of AI, there’s tremendous value in real-life experiences between human beings, especially when it comes to mentorship and coaching. With a commitment to helping you reach that next level, my mission is to help individuals and businesses thrive through tailored coaching solutions. But what does the next level look like for you? Here’s how I might be able to help:

  • Communication: Learn techniques to establish context and trust in conversations in order to influence outcomes.
  • Thought Partnership: Untangle big “proble-tunities” in your day-to-day or long-term strategy. I can be a sounding board or active participate. You choose.
  • People Management: Help first-time managers and junior developers grow quickly via my industry experience and process mapping techniques.
  • Strategic Planning: I’ll bring the toolbox, you bring the ideas, and I’ll help you prioritize and focus them into an actionable plan.
  • Customer Interactions: Let’s find out what your customers want quickly and easily. Uplevel your skills in written and oral surveying techniques.
  • Stakeholder Management: Keep everyone in your organization informed without taxing your schedule with an effective communication plan.
  • And so much more…
