I'm laid back, humorous, and you never know what I'm going to say.

My clients tend to stay with me for a minimum of 4 months.

When someone asks me about my background, I always start with my youth and growing up in the projects of Westchester County and the Tri-State area. Living in an impoverished neighborhood taught me lots of lessons. From early on I realized that each one of us is unique and that we all have a story to tell. I am very curious about people and see them at their very best. Some say I have been coaching others all of my life. Maybe so. What I do know is that I was destined to be a part of the Coaching Profession from the very beginning.

I attended Mercy College in Dobbs Ferry, NY and received a BS majoring in Accounting & Finance. During my senior year I became very interested and fascinated with computers and business software. So, I leveraged my knowledge of debits and credits to help entrepreneurs streamline their businesses with computerized accounting systems.

I have held numerous positions as Sales Executive, Management, Project Manager, and Trainer in the computer, software, and consulting industries for over 20 years. I have successfully helped build a half dozen different business's with numerous software & hardware products in multiple industries.

I have experience working with a wide range of companies large and small. Solopreneurs, healthcare, legal, education, government, manufacturing, distribution, and international concerns to name a few. My personal customer service experiences have been everyone from Mom & Pop owners, Board of Directors, C-Level, Middle Management, Finance, HR, Engineers, and skilled folks on the Shop Floor.

I have developed an empathetic and supportive communication style focused on helping my customers achieve their goals. Although I truly enjoyed partnering with organizations and seeing them succeed, my most satisfying experiences have been the relationships I have created along the way. I am very lucky.

A big believer in continuous improvement, I decided to pursue a graduate degree at night while advancing my professional career during the day. So, I attended Syracuse University and acquired an MBA majoring in International Business. I thoroughly enjoyed the educational experience as well as the camaraderie of fellow students and faculty.

I then discovered the wonderful profession of coaching. I received my formal coaching education from Coach U which is an ICF accredited school. Interesting enough, I have more coaching education hours than both college degrees combined. Coach University is one of the top accredited Coach Training organizations worldwide.
