What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to leverage my expertise in leadership development and coaching, fostering growth and engagement within an organization that values cultural transformation and performance improvement.

I am a leadership development professional with over a decade of experience in coaching individuals and teams, designing strategic learning programs, and partnering with leaders to drive growth and performance. My commitment lies in aligning leadership development with organizational goals and supporting cultural transformation, ensuring that leaders grow with clarity, resilience, and confidence.

In my current role as a Lead Performance Expert and Master Resilience Trainer at Strategic Resource, Inc., I have successfully designed and delivered leadership development and resilience training programs in military settings. I focus on building essential skills in communication, emotional intelligence, and decision-making through tailored blended learning solutions. My approach incorporates evidence-based techniques, and I continuously evaluate program effectiveness to enhance offerings and support organizational culture.

Previously, I managed teams at Pella Corporation and Beistle Company, where I implemented hands-on development strategies and designed onboarding programs that fostered career growth. My educational background includes a Master of Arts in Psychology with a focus on Sport and Performance Psychology, equipping me with the knowledge to support leaders in achieving their full potential.
