During this time, I worked for Fortune 500 companies, mid-sized manufacturers and technology start ups. I sold services and products to financial institutions, technology companies, law firms, manufacturing companies and government agencies. I managed a sales team of four and ran a district office of 100.

During my sales career I loved not only the people I got to meet, but also helping those people get what they wanted, whether it was a product or a new position. Yet, despite the consistent promotions and pay raises, I hated being in sales and was miserable in life.

In 1996 I had my first child and became determined to understand what it took to be successful at work, lead a meaningful, satisfying life and be able to take care of myself and my family. Since then I have studied with true masters of life and business.

My learning helped me be more successful and satisfied. I no longer worked until one o'clock in the morning, getting up at six o'clock to please the world. My learning taught me new skills that enable me to be more effective in life and take better care of what is important to me. This process made me realize that what I really love is helping people live the life they want. This realization led me to coaching.

I bring to my clients my love of people, along with my insight and intuition. I bring my love of beauty and my capacity to see the beauty and greatness in people. I bring my 20 years of successful sales experience, sales management - and the memories of when I hated sales! (I also bring my honesty.) I bring to my clients my deep commitment to continue to develop myself so I can better help them.
