Why I Love What I Do: I love working with CoreClarity because it affirms people of their talents and makes them feel seen, heard and valued. This perspective shifting enhances capacity for compassion and understanding despite the differences. It's truly rewarding to see clients' light bulbs go off and seeing them develop a more fulfilling and sustainable career plans for themselves.
Up Close & Personal: I like to connect people and bring them together to create opportunities to amplify voices and leverage connections. I love to capture meaningful moments and explore new places and cultures. I'm also a swing dancer, aerial-yogi, plant-lady, mom of a fur baby, animal-shelter volunteer, and philanthropist.
