Welcome! As the founder of Steady Focus Coaching and a former Fortune 500 leader with over 15 years of experience in finance, business analytics, and corporate strategy. After years of advising executives and leading complex business decisions, she shifted her focus to helping individuals navigate their own career inflection points. Sumom coaches professionals through growth, transition, and reinvention—helping them clarify what they want, build the skills to get there, and make decisions aligned with their values rather than external expectations. Her work is grounded in the belief that careers are not linear, and that clarity, confidence, and purpose can be rebuilt at any stage. I have partnered with 101 clients to enhance their professional capabilities, from communication and executive presence to strategic career transitions. My approach integrates evidence-based assessments like EQ-i/360, DISC, and MBTI to tailor development plans that align with personal and professional goals. Whether you're looking to refine your leadership skills or navigate a career change, I'm here to support your journey. Let's connect and create a roadmap to your success!
