Before becoming a coach, I spent over 15 years working in educational settings, supporting students across a wide range of backgrounds and learning profiles.

I have worked in both low-income and affluent communities in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States, as well as in Western Europe. Across these environments, I saw the same challenges appear again and again:

• Difficulty with focus and attention

• Struggles with time management and planning

• Challenges with writing and expressing ideas

• Trouble with decision-making, follow-through, and self-advocacy

These are not issues of intelligence or motivation.

They are skills—and they can be developed.

That understanding is at the core of my coaching practice.
