About Me

I see a world shaped by possibility ... where alignment, presence, and truth open new paths forward. 


I see you as someone who’s ready to grow, to be fully seen, and to lead from the center of who you are.

​

I see us creating the conditions for Life and Work to finally feel like home.

My Story

I began my career in the world of medium and large corporations — places that taught me how systems work ... how people move within them ... and how leadership either liberates or limits what’s possible.

​

I did well in those environments, and yet, I had the felt sense that something essential was missing.
 

Beneath the success, I felt a quiet pull toward something deeper: work that felt human, meaningful, and infused with care. Work where people were valued for who they are, not just what they produce.

​

At 28, I followed that pull and left the corporate path to create something of my own. My fascination with the human experience had been with me long before that ... a curiosity about what shapes us, what liberates us, and what keeps us from living aligned with our truth. Becoming a psychotherapist, and later a coach and facilitator, only intensified that desire, showing me just how powerful self-awareness and presence can be in transforming a life.

​

For more than 30 years since, I’ve been a student of inner and outer leadership, exploring consciousness, Dialogue, embodied wisdom, and the subtle forces that shape human behavior, relationship, and choice. That same exploration now fuels the work I do with entrepreneurs and executives who feel overwhelmed by responsibility and yet know there is another way to live and lead.

​

My work integrates grounded leadership strategy with Bohmian Dialogue and embodied presence, helping people reconnect with the intelligence of life itself. Clarity expands. Alignment deepens. And from that inner coherence, decisions and actions become far more powerful and meaningful.

​

I’ve had the privilege of co-founding and serving as CEO of Generon International for 31 years, collaborating with extraordinary thought partners across the fields of emotional, spiritual, and leadership intelligence. My formal background includes studies in marketing, business, and psychology with certifications in coaching and group dynamics along with decades of facilitation experience rooted in Dialogue.

​

I’ve shared this work through workshops, organizational development initiatives, 1:1 coaching, and writings on human consciousness, including contributions to Forbes and Conscious Capitalism, and service as a Founding Member of the Conscious Leadership Guild and the Advisory Committee of the American Leadership Forum.

​

Beyond all of that, I am a mother to two beautiful daughters who continually teach me about presence, humility, and love.


I live in the Upstate of South Carolina, in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains ... a place that grounds me and continually reminds me of what matters.

 

Today, everything I do centers on one intention: to help people remember who they are beneath the noise, as they lead, work, and live from that truth.

Some organizations I've had the privilege to support ...

Mission-driven organizations do not falter because they lack passion. They falter when leadership clarity, operational discipline, and funding architecture drift out of alignment.

​

What Alignment Restores: 

​

  • Clear Executive Director and Board authority

  • Leadership steadiness and reduced decision fatigue

  • Stronger financial visibility and planning discipline

  • Structured fundraising architecture that increases unrestricted revenue

  • Renewed donor confidence grounded in credibility and trust

 

When This Work Is Most Valuable: 

​

This work is designed for mission driven nonprofits at meaningful inflection points. Often, that looks like:

​

  • An Executive Director stepping into instability

  • A Board uncertain whether it governs or manages

  • A donor ecosystem beginning to wobble

  • Leadership fatigue caused by structural misalignment

  • An organization that has outgrown the systems supporting its mission

 

This work is best suited for organizations ready to look honestly at what is happening beneath the surface and strengthen the conditions that support lasting impact.​

​

The First Step: Organizational Diagnostic

​

We begin with a structured diagnostic designed to understand the true sources of strain beneath the mission. This process includes confidential interviews with leadership, Board members, and key stakeholders, along with a focused review of governance structure, financial visibility, fundraising architecture, and leadership dynamics.

 

The diagnostic produces a clear picture of organizational strengths, structural gaps, and the specific interventions required to restore alignment.

 

Let’s begin with a brief conversation to explore whether a diagnostic would be valuable for your organization.

Why This Work Is Different

​

Many organizations receive operational advice without cultural repair. Others receive leadership support without enough attention to structural reality. Still others receive fundraising guidance without addressing the trust architecture beneath it.

 

This work begins by looking at the organization as a whole. We bring together governance insight, fundraising architecture, leadership alignment, and organizational renewal so that the mission is supported by structures strong enough to sustain it.
