With over two decades of experience working as a technology executive, manager, and engineer, mentoring and guiding leaders has become my true vocation. At Bottleworks, I am excited to continue this journey!
As someone who has worked with teams of all sizes, from small groups to large organizations, I have honed my expertise in mentoring and coaching new managers, executives, and those transitioning into management roles. During these coaching conversations, I make it a priority to help individuals develop the skills and tools necessary to effectively empower their employees. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of emotional intelligence and guide my clients to cultivate this crucial trait. I also focus on aligning purpose with motivation, as this is an integral aspect of driving individual and organizational success. Overall, my approach is dynamic, personalized, and designed to help individuals at all levels of management achieve their goals and reach their full potential.
My experience in high-growth companies has made me an expert in navigating change, fostering positive team dynamics, and driving organizational influence. Together, we'll explore the intricacies of team dynamics, devise effective change management plans, and sharpen your communication and collaboration skills.
Although my background lies in technical management and leadership, I am passionate about collaborating with individuals from all industries and backgrounds to foster growth and achieve personal and professional insights.

I have spent over a decade working in program management and mental healthcare. I have a masters in Social Work and an MBA and through my experiences in the university, clinical, and small business settings, I have gained valuable insights into team dynamics and the factors that can hinder individual and team success. I have always enjoyed learning and understanding the motivations of others and creating strategies that minimize friction and maximize productivity.
As I’ve developed a deeper understanding and appreciation of human behavior as well as the importance of effective communication and empathy, I have found that working with people to figure out their career and life goals is a process that I find exciting and enjoyable. I believe that every individual has the potential to move past the obstacles holding them back and I am committed to working with clients to navigate their career paths, identify their strengths and weaknesses, and develop strategies to achieve their professional aspirations.
My training and experience provides me with a unique perspective on the modern workplace and the challenges that we all face. Whether you are just starting out in your career, looking for a career change, or seeking to advance in your current role, I’m looking forward to providing you with the guidance, support, and tools you need to succeed.
