Personal Profile

I have worked with over 1,000 individuals as a business and executive coach over the past 23 years. Based in Troy, Michigan, I earned the distinction of Master Certified Coach (MCC) from the International Coach Federation (ICF) in 1999.  I work with executives, business owners, and high-potential professionals to help them significantly increase their productivity, profitability, and life balance.

My workshops, seminars, speaking engagements, and customized coaching programs foster a comprehensive and holistic approach to individual and organizational development, assuring practical applications on both professional and personal levels.

My customized coaching programs range from small entrepreneurial ventures to a variety of projects with mid-sized and large organizations, including professional service firms, coaches, consultants, and professionals in transition looking to start and grow their own business.

I spend much of my time helping individuals and organizations master the leadership, management, communication, and coaching skills needed in today’s competitive and rapidly changing world.  I speak frequently to groups in Southeastern Michigan on coaching, leadership, management, mastering relationships, sales effectiveness, and life-balance issues.
