I specialize in providing practical support for professionals seeking greater fulfillment in their work. My clients typically want to make a transition to work that is more in line with their values and interests and/or offers greater flexibility and work-life balance. My coaching includes assessments, action planning, job search guidance, interview coaching, and development of marketing skills and materials.

I bring 15 years of professional experience in the private and public sectors to my coaching practice. Prior to starting my own coaching business, I served as a senior consultant for a leading human resources consulting firm, managing large-scale projects in the areas of organizational change and talent development. My roles included team leadership, people management, recruiting, writing, and group facilitation. As a mentor and people manager, I provided extensive performance, development, and career coaching.

Certified Career Management Coach credentialI have earned the ICF-accredited Certified Career Management Coach (CCMC) credential from Career Coach Academy. I am also qualified to administer and interpret the Strong Interest Inventory and am a ValuesOnline™ Qualified Facilitator. Most recently, I earned the prestigious Master Resume Writer (MRW) credential from the Career Management Alliance. This certification was designed specifically for highly experienced resume professionals who combine expert writing and English language skills with a strategic approach to resume development. My educational background includes a joint MBA/Master of Industrial Relations degree from Cornell University and an undergraduate degree from Yale University. I am currently a member of the Career Management Alliance, the International Coach Federation, the CT Entrepreneurial Women’s Network, and the Fairfield CT Chamber of Commerce.

I know what it means, firsthand, to contend with the ever-changing balance of professional and personal responsibilities. My home life revolves around enjoying—together with my husband, Victor—the ongoing magnificent growth and change in the lives of our two sons, Jason and Evan.


Create greater joy and fulfillment in your working life.
