My Training
As a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC), I was trained and certified by The Coaches Training Institute (CTI) in San Rafael, California. I chose this excellent course so I could offer the very best to my clients. As a forerunner among coaching schools CTI’s Co-Active Coaching model has captured the imagination of thousands of managers, leaders, and coaches, leading to the most widely used text book in coaching, and the largest number of certified coaches globally. As a member of the International Coaching Federation (ICF), the largest nonprofit professional association of personal and business coaches, I keep my skills updated by attending conferences and workshops.

My Experience
As a spouse, parent, volunteer, artist, and entrepreneur, I have played many roles in life. I understand what it is to be a young parent, a working mother, a business leader, and a community volunteer.

My professional background includes service as the Executive Director of a Chamber of Commerce, Director of an Employment Agency, Developer of an Award Winning Community Recycling Program, Creator and Teacher of Community College Courses, and Vocalist in a quartet. As a volunteer I have served in many leadership roles in the community, schools, and church. My wealth of experience and love of people contributes to my coaching being well-rounded and insightful.

Coaching Has Changed Me
Coaching has unleashed my creative and authentic self to much higher levels. I am a happier person and enjoy my life more. My marriage is more gratifying and I have found more time for hobbies and interests. It has radically changed my life and I want to share this same peace, joy and satisfaction with others. If I am your coach, you will get 100% of my talents, intuition and love. Thank you and I hope we can work together.

My Beliefs

In my life journey, I have learned how important it is to live from what one treasures most. Greeting each day with a grateful heart, being playful and positive, and finding joy through serving others makes my day more meaningful. Taking personal responsibility for my choices and happiness helps me attain my goals much sooner than depending on loved ones or circumstances to change.

My heartfelt beliefs, which empower clients toward a richer life, are:
• Our attitudes and perspectives shape how we experience life; we can continually change and learn new perspectives which serve us better.
• Focusing on the positive in ourselves and others brings out our best.
• We are accountable for our choices and there are far more choices to ponder than we often believe.
• We are responsible for our own happiness and often times we fear success as much as failure. 
• We have a purpose in life and unique gifts and, when honored, we experience our greatest joy and fulfillment.
• Life is literally full of wonder and our moment of power is always in the present moment, not the past or future.
• Fulfillment is possible today, we don’t have to wait for our wish list to be complete.
