I spent the first half of my career in Corporate America. 20+ years at a couple fortune 500 companies in various capacities...HR, Sales & Marketing and Customer Acquisition & Retention. After completely burning out, I left the corporate world for the work I was called to do—helping others reach their full potential. I worked as a life and career coach for one of the largest non-profits in my area. I was also contracted as a transition coach for General Motors and the United States Military, helping displaced workers and military wives make career transitions. It was there I honed my skills as a coach.
I’ve been married for over 20 years to an amazing spirit and partner who challenges me to grow on a daily basis. It was when I was stricken with a sudden, inexplicable illness that I learned the blessing of being in a true partnership.
​
As a certified Life and Career Coach helping others with growth and life mastery, I started a blog offering tips and tools that would help people improve their life. I wanted to give people tangible information that will help them on their journey. After a few years of blogging, fiction seemed like the next logical step. ​
Through the stories of others we learn about ourselves.
I started writing fiction to offer light, love and hope to those who've lost their way. My fiction stories revolve around all the things that make us human—life, love, triumph, loss. Each of those stories is an example of growth and what's possible for us as human beings. We have the power to transcend, no matter what we face, and my stories reflect that. They are intended to inspire you to begin your own journey of finding peace and fulfillment in life. My debut novel was titled A Taste of Love and was a National Indie Excellence Awards Finalist. My second book is titled Indiscretion and my third book is titled Dirty. Despite the names, they’re relatively clean. When I chose everyday household terms, I had no idea they’d imply a different meaning. Lesson learned. I've also written a short story that received honorable distinction in the 87th annual Writers Digest Short Story Contest. A story about a woman navigating the tumult of midlife, as am I, and she runs into something unexpected.​
I'm completely enamored with the beauty and complexity of the human experience, and as such, everything I do, whether writing or coaching revolves around that. It is my belief that many of us have only scratched the surface of what we're truly capable of and I'm on a mission to assist people in uncovering the depth and breath of possibility within them. ​​​​Life can be tricky. But through each challenge we face, if we learn the lessons available to us in every moment, we become more fully who we were intended to be. Strong, powerful co-creators of our own lives. And my intention is to help you do that. Click the BOOKS tab if you're ready to be inspired on your journey.
