What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can coach leaders, design behavior-change programs, and build resilient cultures—valuing psychological safety, measurable impact, and collaborative teams.

I am an ICF-certified holistic coach and MBA with a track record of helping professionals and leaders navigate transitions, reduce stress, and overcome internal blocks using neuroscience-informed coaching, somatic tools, and practical accountability. I design and deliver individual and group coaching that strengthens emotional regulation, builds confidence, and converts insight into consistent, aligned action.

My experience includes founding a coaching practice and leading organizational excellence and transformation initiatives that improved change readiness, adoption, and team resilience across large enterprises. I partner with clients to embed values-driven leadership, create sustainable habits, and maintain productivity and wellbeing during demanding periods.
