Leadership Coaching
About Me
​
With a doctorate in clinical psychology and over a decade of experience in the dynamic San Francisco Bay Area, I have had the privilege of coaching and training leaders from some of the world's most innovative and influential companies, including Airbnb, AllBirds, Twitter, and Spotify. My journey in leadership coaching has been marked by a commitment to fostering growth, resilience, and strategic thinking among top executives and emerging leaders alike.
​
Throughout my career, I have honed a unique approach that integrates evidence-based methodologies and psychological principles with practical insights tailored to the fast-paced and ever-evolving landscape of the tech industry. My expertise extends beyond individual coaching to include the development and facilitation of comprehensive leadership programs that have empowered organizations to navigate change, drive performance, and cultivate a culture of continuous improvement.
​
In addition to my work with high-profile clients, I have contributed to the field through speaking engagements, workshops, and published research on leadership development and organizational behavior. My dedication to professional excellence and passion for helping leaders achieve their fullest potential is at the core of my coaching philosophy.

Clinical to Industry
