Hello and Welcome!

I am deeply committed to helping you live a full life! Too many of us these days are plagued with stress, worry, anxiety, loneliness, isolation, depression, chronic pain, and/or many other challenges. As a result, many people often feel helpless and even hopeless. This realization propelled me to search for and study scientifically proven skills and tools that can help not only decrease suffering in people but also more importantly, help increase their happiness and well-being so they can live their best life. 

After years of studying and training in positive psychology, coaching, meditation, emotional balance, resilience skills and positive education, it is my greatest joy to be sharing this knowledge with others, helping transform lives for the better and contributing to positive change in our world. Through the tools and techniques I teach, I empower individuals so they can take charge of their own happiness and well-being.

The good news is that there is so much that is within our control, if we can learn to cultivate awareness and know that we have the power of choice. Because it is not what happens to us that defines us or determines our happiness and well-being, but how we choose to think, feel and act everyday. We just need the right tools to do this and that is precisely what I offer. Happiness and well-being are skills that can be learned and strengthened with practice. The compelling tools that I offer will help you cultivate the awareness and develop the power you need to choose the life you want. 

I bring to my clients powerful knowledge and practices from my training and certifications in various areas. I am an Associate Certified Coach (ACC) with the International Coaching Federation (ICF), Certified Executive Coach, Certified Applied Positive Psychology Practitioner and Coach, Certified Group and Team Coach, Certified Resilience Trainer, Certified Positive Educator and Trainer, Certified Mindfulness Meditation Teacher, Certified Primordial Sound Meditation Instructor, Certified Teacher in Cultivating Emotional Balance, and HeartMath Certified Coach. I also completed the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Teacher Training Intensive (MBSR TTI) through the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) Mindfulness-Based Professional Training Institute.

My background also includes years as a graduate school admissions consultant as well as work in high-tech marketing, market research and advertising. I hold a Master’s degree in Business Administration (MBA) from The Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University and a Bachelor of Arts in International Relations from Pomona College.

Let's work together to help you grow, succeed and flourish in life!
