About Me:
I launch emerging and evolving leaders across generations to align their strengths with their core values, vision, and mission to build careers and companies that are successful, sustainable, and make a positive social impact. Through experiential, participant-centered coaching, training, and speaking programs adapted to meet the specific needs of each company, university, school, or association, I ensure that great people have opportunities to achieve great results. I enable clients to awaken to their vision for the future and collaborate with them on designing and implementing a plan that supports high achievement, personal growth, and increased professional and personal satisfaction.

A born entrepreneur, I launched my first business in sixth grade. I gave ballet lessons to my neighborhood friends in exchange for Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. As a college sophomore, I won the Independent Means Business Plan Competition. Shortly after, I executed my plan for a nonprofit, young women’s leadership development after school program. I worked for nearly a decade in the nonprofit sector as a director, consultant, manager, educator, administrator, and artist, partnering with a variety of organizations to make an impact on the arts, education, women’s issues, and youth and community development.

When my partner proposed to me, I knew that while I could easily answer his question, I no longer knew if I could answer my own: What do I want to be doing with my life? I decided to enroll in Coach U, the premier international coach training school. I harnessed the chutzpah to stop whining and start redesigning my life from the inside out. I discovered that the question I needed to be asking was: Who do I want to be when I show up each day to my life? I re-awakened my dormant entrepreneurial spirit and embarked on building my coaching and training business, Catalyst for Action.

In addition to my work as a coach, trainer, and speaker, I have taught public speaking, sociodrama, improvisation, acting, intercultural relations, and women’s studies for several universities. I am published in We Don’t Need Another Wave (Seal Press, 2006) and featured in Grassroots: A Field Guide for Feminist Activism (FSG, 2004). I am the Corporate Leadership columnist for the Newark Examiner, write for the popular career blogs Damsels in Success and Brazen Careerist, and perform with The Stolen Chair Theatre Company. I hold an MA in interdisciplinary studies from New York University and a BA in women’s studies from University of Nevada Las Vegas.
