Individuals live and breathe at the heart of any great organization. Unleashing their potential is my life's work.
Welcome to my website! I'm hoping that this will be a place of information and perspective for you, and I'd love to hear your thoughts as well.
I have the great good fortune to be a member of the North American Careers Management Leadership Team. Our team of inspiring and dedicated colleagues are engaged in hands-on, on-the ground talent development in both the outplacement and career development arenas. Every day we work with individuals and groups who are in some stage of transition in their careers: inside and outside organizations. At the end of each day, it is so gratifying to see the folks we coach emerge from what is often a very difficult time with hope and strength, ready to meet the next challenges that face them. It's thrilling when they move onto their next successful opportunities. As a coach, it's an honor to feel like I had some hand in that.
I love my work, and I know just how rare and precious that is. This is some of the most rewarding work I can imagine, and I am proud to do it, and prouder still to be a part of Right Management and work with such talented and passionate colleagues.
