Bio
I am a seasoned executive leadership strategist, ICF - Professional Certified Coach (PCC), former CEO, and academic leader with over 30 years of experience leading transformation across government, higher education, and enterprise.
I specialize in partnering with mission-driven organizations and senior leaders to bridge the gap between strategy and human potential—helping them clarify purpose, ignite culture change, and achieve sustained, measurable performance.
My leadership journey includes roles as President, Dean, Program Director, and Strategic Consultant, where I’ve guided enterprise-wide initiatives, shaped institutional policy, and built learning environments that drive growth and resilience. Whether coaching C-suite executives, advising academic institutions or facilitating doctoral-level development, I focus on creating clarity, alignment, and lasting impact.
As a certified executive coach, I do more than facilitate professional growth—I help leaders redefine what’s possible in their influence, vision, and strategic decision-making. My coaching approach is grounded in ICF Core Competencies, enriched by real-world leadership, and powered by a deep belief in each leader’s capacity for transformation.
