Leadership Coaching, Events, and Resources

I bring over a decade of experience working with senior leaders at Microsoft and in institutional governance, with deep expertise in organizational design, leadership development, and strategic HR. At Microsoft, I’ve coached VPs through critical transitions, guided leadership teams through post-acquisition integration, and helped executives gain clarity on complex decisions amid competing priorities. I’ve also served as Chair of the Bowdoin College Alumni Council and its Diversity Committee, leading governance and strategic decision-making at the institutional level. My approach is grounded in real-world experience with power dynamics, organizational complexity, and the isolation that comes with senior leadership. I specialize in creating space for leaders to surface unseen blockers, strengthen their decision-making, and move forward with clarity and confidence. I hold certifications as a Prosci Change Practitioner, OKR Coach, and Agile Scrum Master, and I bring practical tools from organizational psychology and adult development to my work.

Leadership challenges rarely stop at the edge of the situation. The ones that keep recurring, despite your best efforts, usually have a personal dimension: a pattern in how you manage others, a story you've stopped questioning, a reaction that keeps pulling you off course. I work with public and social-sector leaders at precisely that intersection. My approach draws on Adaptive Leadership — a methodology developed over forty years at the Harvard Kennedy School — and on adult development theory, which offers a rigorous framework for understanding how we grow and what gets in the way. Together, these help us look at both the system you're trying to move and the inner dynamics that shape how you're meeting it. My coaching sessions are unhurried and attentive, and follow your sense-making rather than a set path. I ask questions more than I give answers. I'm not afraid to name what I notice — a tension, an incongruity, a place where something seems to tighten — and I work to make it safe enough that you can look at it directly. That's usually where the most important work happens.

I help tech leaders and executives lead through transformation - whether that's navigating AI's impact on their organization, stepping into bigger roles, or rebuilding after burnout. I've been where my clients are. For 15 years, I led international teams at Google and Pinterest across Europe and Latin America, managing $215M+ portfolios and building teams through high-pressure, high-visibility environments. I know what it takes to lead in complex, matrixed organizations - and I know what can cost. Now I bring that operational depth to coaching. I'm a Co-Active Certified Coach (CPCC), ICF-credentialed (ACC), and NLP Master Practitioner. I work with leaders at highly innovative companies like DeepMind, LinkedIn, and Reddit, and I serve as CFO and Board Trustee at artsdepot in London. I also bring a neurodivergent-informed lens to leadership. I understand how to leverage cognitive diversity, design sustainable energy management practices, and help leaders work with their wiring rather than against it. This perspective is increasingly valuable as AI transforms how we work — the human skills that matter most often come from thinking differently. My clients come to me when they're ready for an honest, strategic partnership. I'm direct, structured, and calm under pressure as well as highly intuitive. If you're navigating a career pivot, stepping up to executive leadership, or trying to lead sustainably without burning out, let's talk.

I've managed teams from 10 to 90+ people across the US, Latin America, and India. I've navigated reorgs, built engineering cultures from scratch, and made hard calls on people, priorities, and budgets at Goldman Sachs and Disney. I know what it takes to lead at scale because I do it every day. I'm trained in Co-Active coaching and I work with tech leaders on the stuff that doesn't show up in a performance review: executive presence, decision-making under pressure, managing up, building trust across functions, and figuring out what kind of leader you actually want to be. Practical and human, not theoretical.

Most leadership coaches have studied leadership. I’ve led at scale. As a former SVP operating across global organizations, I’ve carried revenue targets, built teams across continents, and made decisions where the cost of hesitation was real. Today, I coach senior executives to close the gap between knowing and doing. My work focuses on decision velocity, accountability, and leadership behavior under pressure. I don’t offer theory. I help leaders see what they’re missing, say what needs to be said, and execute at a higher level. Over 6,000 sessions have sharpened one core skill: identifying the few changes that unlock disproportionate impact.

I've spent 20+ years building and leading product organizations at Yahoo, AOL, and high-growth startups including Hightail (CPO), FutureAdvisor (Head of Product, acq. by BlackRock), and Lyra Health (Head of Product). At Lyra, I built the product org serving 20M+ people across 300+ enterprise clients; at Hightail, I led the pivot from legacy file-sharing to the collaboration platform that became the foundation for its OpenText acquisition. Deep experience leading AI/ML product strategy, 0-to-1 product development, cross-functional team building, and scaling through growth. Since 2020, I've coached 100+ product and design leaders globally — from first-time leaders to seasoned CPOs — on AI integration, product vision, stakeholder management, and organizational scaling. I also build and ship AI-powered products using Claude Code and LLMs to stay hands-on with the tools I recommend to clients.
