You have a sense of where you want to go — but something keeps getting in the way: maybe risk aversion, a story you've been telling yourself, or ambition that feels complicated to own. This package is for professionals ready to move from knowing what they want into doing something about it. We'll work on the internal barriers that make change harder than it needs to be — and build the momentum to carry you through a real career transition, pivot, or leap into something new.

Find Clarity & Take Smart Risks | Bold Career Pivots | Harvard
I specialize in helping ambitious people find clarity to make career decisions that others call risky. I've coached people through finding new career paths, deciding on grad school, changing jobs, and launching businesses. My clients are leaders and high performers who are considering moves that involve risks or don't fit the traditional narrative—major career pivots, walking away from prestigious opportunities, or choosing the less “safe” option. My approach is rooted in established frameworks—Adult Developmental Theory, Adaptive Leadership, and Immunity to Change, among others. I've received training in leading and managing change from Harvard Kennedy School, Minds at Work, and Cultivating Leadership, and I am currently pursuing my PCC-level ICF coaching certification. Most career coaching is advice-based and about minimizing or managing risk. I help people do something much harder: rebalance your risk appetite and find unconventional ways to take smart risks. My coaching is about rethinking your “negative space” to expand what's possible. Whether you're navigating a pivot or weighing a decision that feels like it defies conventional wisdom, I'll help you find clarity and take action.
