Boston Executive Coach: Supporting Purpose-Driven Careers

As a Boston-based executive coach and career strategist, I combine deep experience in social impact work with expertise in professional development. My background spans sustainability, public service, and higher education, including roles as an environmental protection lobbyist and director of strategic communications. This real-world experience and degrees in psychology, public administration, and law shape my unique approach to supporting career transitions and organizational growth.

Since 2022, I've focused exclusively on executive coaching and career development, serving clients throughout Greater Boston and North America. I help professionals navigate meaningful career changes and support organizations in developing stronger teams through one-on-one coaching, workshops, and interactive group experiences.

Whether you're a mid-career professional seeking purposeful change or an organization looking to strengthen your team's impact, I can help you grow professionally with structure and adaptability.
