About Miki
Born and raised New Yorker who has lived in Chicago, Tokyo, and Paris. I've worked in transportation consulting and most recently at a workforce development nonprofit.
Why do I coach?
I coach because I received so much mentoring/coaching from people who came before me and want to pay it forward. I love working with people to help them craft their story!
