"What got you here won't get you there." I still remember the moment those words landed.

A leader had just taken a bet on me. I wasn't the obvious choice for the role, and we both knew it. In a single weekend, I was handed a role a decade ahead of where I stood. No runway. No ramp-up. No roadmap. Just a new title and the quiet pressure of having to become someone I hadn't been, yet.

What made the jump possible wasn't just ambition or more hard work. For me, a big ingredient was executive coaching (thanks Ed!)

He asked the questions I wasn't asking myself. He helped me see the gap between who I was and who the role required. Then, helped me close it.

In 2026, I started offering executive coaching to a small number of clients. My focus is on high-achieving, mid-career folks in tech and fast-moving industries who are ready for what's next and need a thought partner to get there. Managing all that as a working parent is a specific topic that excites me.

Here's where I can support:

• honing leadership skills in demanding and hyper-growth environments

• navigating pivotal moments (promotion, job change, new boss, parental leave, founding something)

• scaling high performance culture in your organization

• designing talent, recruitment, and compensation strategy for top talent
