My approach is grounded in having an authentic connection with and care for my clients, creating a space for them to show up as their true selves and be fully seen. I draw on my diverse personal and professional background to work with clients experiencing complex and sensitive challenges. 

I work with clients across  multiple roles and industries, including the private sector, tech (Apple, Facebook, Genentech, Google, LinkedIn, Slack), academia (Stanford, UC San Francisco, UC Berkeley), public sector (city and county offices across the U.S., military, international governments), and non-profit agencies. I offer Zoom or phone appointments for clients internationally.
