Who Am I? 

I’m a 45-year-old woman living in the suburbs of Philadelphia, and I currently work with coaching clients across the United States. In addition to my coaching practice, I’ve spent the past 24 years in the field of education, specializing in special education. Supporting all types of people as they learn, grow, and overcome challenges has been the foundation of my career, both in the classroom and through coaching.

Why I chose coaching:

In my thirties, I reached a level of burnout that changed the course of my life. Years of pushing through, ignoring my own needs, and simply surviving had caught up with me. I found myself immersed in several years of intensive mental health treatment, addiction recovery, and medical care for chronic illness. My mind and body had reached a breaking point, and it became clear that the way I had been living for the first thirty years of my life was no longer sustainable.

As I worked through my healing, I eventually reached a place where my past no longer defined or controlled me. But despite how far I'd come, I still felt uncertain about the future. I knew I didn't want to go back to merely surviving—I just didn't know how to move forward.

That's when I hired my own coach, and it became one of the most transformative decisions I've ever made.

Coaching didn't erase my past, but it completely changed my relationship with it. Instead of seeing my experiences as something that held me back, I began to recognize the strength, resilience, and wisdom they had given me. More importantly, coaching helped me shift my focus toward the future. For the first time, I realized that I had the power to intentionally create a life I genuinely wanted—not just one I could endure.

The years since then have been some of the most exciting, fulfilling, and joy-filled of my life. Coaching helped me move beyond survival and into a life of purpose, possibility, empowerment, and fun. It reminded me that healing isn't just about recovering from the past—it's about creating a future you're excited to wake up to every day.
