ignite impact
Dynamic workshops designed to spark insight, strengthen leadership, and accelerate team success.
I design and deliver learning experiences that help people and teams build skills, shift mindsets, and increase their impact in meaningful, lasting ways. I bring two decades of experience in leadership, human-centered design, and coaching to create learning experiences that stick - because they’re grounded in cognitive behavior science and real-world best practices.
I work with organizations to create inclusive, high-impact workshops and programs tailored to their needs - whether that’s developing leadership skills, navigating change, or improving collaboration and communication. My facilitation style is engaging, interactive, and focused on actionable outcomes and sustained learning.

How I Facilitate
Every workshop is designed to ignite creativity and catalyze action. I use a human-centered, experiential approach grounded in design thinking, coaching, and cognitive science. You can expect sessions that are:
Engaging – hands-on and participatory from the start
Strategic – always tied to clear objectives and outcomes
Inclusive – safe, thoughtful spaces where ideas and people thrive
Customized – shaped around your culture, people, and priorities
Participants leave with not just ideas, but tools, frameworks, and confidence to take action.
Who I’ve Worked With
I’ve had the pleasure to work with forward-thinking companies like Amazon, Mozilla, and Brooks Running, as well as fast-growing startups, agencies, and non-profits. I also lead Strategic Leaders, a live cohort program I developed and facilitate each year, helping individual contributors and managers grow their strategic leadership skills.
