I am a strategic thinker with an entrepreneurial spirit, an experienced facilitator and event designer, professional doodler, artist, and a leader with heart.When I started my business, TadZo LLC, 11 years ago, I knew involving people in collaborative solution-making was the greatest value for my clients, so I invested in developing world-class facilitation skills. Through seeking new approaches, experimentation and reflecting on what contributed to the greatest long-term impact, I evolved my business from strictly economic development to my passion for inclusive facilitation. I help leaders and teams work better together and improve their positive impact. I coach for transformational change and help people find their confidence to do great things. Ultimately, I build collaborative capacity for meaningful work.Over my 36-year career in business and economic development, I have helped public and private-sector organizations as well as non-profits in 26 U.S. states and Canadian provinces. I am passionate about adventures in nature, expressing my inner artist, and living my Catholic faith.Fun facts: When I was younger, I served as the California State FFA President. I was active in 4-H and raised sheep that financed my college education.
