Biography

Having experienced the power of great coaching myself, I love supporting clients to fulfill their dreams and imagine a more fulfilling life.  I use my professional training to champion clients to achieve their goals.  Clients imagine their best lives and future possibilities, resonating their beliefs and values.

I coach high potential executives and individuals experiencing change at work or home. Clients may be starting a new C-suite role; reinventing themselves and their career; or planning for fulfillment in retirement.

I was Vice President of Human Resources for Medtronic’s $6B cardiac and heart rhythm organization, working with global leaders around the world to drive their businesses and functions. Previously, I worked for two other Fortune 200 global corporations - General Mills and IBM.

I completed the CTI Co-Active Coach^® program and have the ICF ACC certification. I hold an MS from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a BA from St. Olaf College, Northfield, MN.  I am a member of ICF South Florida and am President-Elect ICF Minnesota, residing in Naples, Florida, and Minneapolis, Minnesota.
