Expertise

I can answer questions about how to make important decisions in your career, your personal life and your relationships. The best decisions are made based on what you value, what gives you the most energy, and a vision the pulls you forward. In the words of a good friend of mine, "pain pushes until vision pulls." Poor decisions are usually the result of fear or trying to move away from something rather than toward. I do not answer questions about financial investments.

Experience

I am a certified professional coach and have been coaching people to make important decisions in life and career for the past several years. I am known for helping my clients see a bigger, clearer picture of the possibilities and helping my clients get INTO ACTION rather than endlessly way different options. I also help people understand the impact their decisons have on others including partners, spouses, children, coworkers, direct reports, bosses, and other stakeholders.
