This is me.
First-generation college student in my family. ✔ The odd girl out at school. ✔ Sexual trauma. Bullied. Grew up too quickly. ✔ Anorexia. ✔ Worked my way to the top early and got burn-out. ✔ Fast track junior executive. ✔ Started my own business. ✔ Became a wife. ✔ Divorced. ✔ Mother of 3 amazing teens. ✔ First-generation immigrant. ✔ Traumatized youth. ✔ Successful, integrated, fulfilled adult, mother, businesswoman, public servant. ✔
I specialize in coaching teens, millennials, and parents in life, school, and careers.
I have been mentoring, coaching, and helping youth expand into their future in a safe and judgment-free after-school program. My background and training have enabled me to develop an approach to coaching that incorporates principles and practices drawn from various psychology sub-disciplines. I combine all of these methods to help you or your child get unstuck, plan action steps, stay motivated and achieve goals.
