Leadership Coaching Coaches

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.

With a distinguished career in sales leadership, I have made significant contributions to renowned brands including LinkedIn, The Economist, and Ziff Davis. I have a long track record of achieving results by guiding individuals toward elevated performance, growth, and self-awareness. My corporate background includes leading teams to record revenue achievements and spearheading strategies for growth. During my decade-long tenure at LinkedIn, I was part of the sales launch team for sponsored content; led a large global cross-functional sales team dedicated to supporting LinkedIn's largest customers; and played a critical leadership role in building a North America key account sales organization. I honed my expertise in relationship building and growth strategies by engaging with C-level and other high-level executives at Fortune 500 companies. My sustained high-performance garnered recognition as a top global sales performer for multiple consecutive years. At The Economist, I served as the head of sales for advertising, research, and events in the Western United States and Latin America where I developed and executed a new global sales strategy. Under my leadership, the sales team achieved consecutive years of record revenue sales. Prior to The Economist, I dedicated seven-plus years at Ziff Davis to building, training, and coaching top-tier advertising-sales organizations. Today, my mission is to leverage my extensive corporate sales leadership experience along with the immense potential of executive coaching to enable individuals and organizations to reach their goals, exceed expectations and fulfill their true purpose. What sets my coaching apart is my unwavering dedication to being a partner in change while also empowering high-potential sales leaders, individual contributors, and senior executives to transform faster by finding their unique path to learn, grow and change.

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.

I’ve spent my career working closely with founders, executives, and leadership teams as they scale businesses, navigate growth, and make high-stakes decisions. Today, I’m a Managing Director and General Manager at Exit Consulting Group, where I advise on strategy, operations, and M&A. In prior roles, I helped build and launch companies within AAA’s venture studio and worked across private equity and consulting, which gave me exposure to how effective leaders actually operate under pressure and uncertainty. Leadership is not something you learn from theory. It shows up in how you make decisions, communicate, prioritize, and lead people when the stakes are real. I’ve seen what works and what doesn’t across different environments, from early-stage teams to more established organizations. I work with people who are stepping into bigger roles or trying to operate at a higher level, helping them think more clearly, navigate complexity, and lead with intention rather than reacting in the moment.
