Leadership Presence, Impact, and Influence (360° Analysis Included)
This comprehensive 6-month executive coaching engagement is built for senior leaders, founders, and executives who want to move beyond doing the job to owning the room. Leveraging my two decades of experience as a tech executive, I partner with you to scale your leadership, unlock organizational growth, and lead with unshakable confidence. The cornerstone of this engagement is a comprehensive 360-degree leadership analysis.

Elevate Your Leadership | Former Chief Experience Officer | ICF Coach
I specialize in the architecture of modern leadership. Drawing from 20 years as a marketing and tech executive— navigating high-stakes corporate spaces as a woman and LGBTQIA+ leader—I provide a seasoned perspective on power, culture, and alignment. I operate at the intersection of executive coaching and strategic advisory. Unlike 'pure-play' coaches, I lean into my two decades of experience across startups and big tech to serve as a consultant and sounding board when the moment demands it. This allows me to offer more than just inquiry; I provide the situational insight required to navigate complex organizational dynamics. Known by former CEOs as 'The Velvet Hammer,' I am recognized for my unique ability to blend deep emotional intelligence with an uncompromising, results-driven strategic edge. I partner with leaders from all backgrounds to bridge the gap between human-centered values and measurable impact, ensuring they lead with the grounded authority the modern era requires.
