Leading with High Standards: Practical Performance Management

I’m a certified leadership coach (ICF-ACC) and former Head of People at a Series C fintech, along with additional experience in talent development roles across a range of industries including Tech, Entertainment, Corporate Real Estate, Financial Services, and Hospitality industries, at small startups and F500 companies alike. I've built leadership development programs from the ground up and coached dozens of new and emerging managers through real-world challenges. I know what it’s like to step into a role that feels bigger than your current skillset - and how to grow into it without losing your authenticity or burning out. Now, as a full-time coach, I work with first-time managers, high-potential leaders, and folks navigating messy transitions. My approach is practical, down-to-earth, and rooted in the belief that great leadership starts with self-awareness and clear communication - not jargon or performative feedback models. Whether you're struggling with confidence, team dynamics, or just figuring out your own leadership style, I can help you lead with more intention, presence, and trust in yourself.
