I’ve always been called to service, from my early days in the Army National Guard, becoming a healthcare specialist, to spending over 13 years in global aid, and later transitioning as an Embedded Coach at fast-growth startups.

The common thread in all of these experiences was the role I played as a bridge between the communities we served and the leaders aiming to make a meaningful impact. By creating a shared reality between the two, we accomplished amazing things.

While working with Smile Network International, USAID, and the American Refugee Committee, I developed infrastructure in 15 developing countries, providing life-altering surgeries, healthcare, and education to thousands of children.

Throughout this journey, I witnessed tremendous suffering alongside impossible resilience — experiences that shaped who I became as a coach, a community leader, and a mother, one who anchors in gratitude and trusts that everything is happening ‘for us,’ not ‘to us.’

I am now committed to the 'Art' of Change Leadership, striving to empower future generations to navigate this transformational era, which will be informed by the quality of our relationships and the power of our voices.

Let’s DO this.
