Early in my career, as a school psychologist, it was evident that I would not be able to initiate the improvements needed to make school a better place for all kids without being in a leadership position. From that point forward, this theme has guided my leadership journey.Being the catalyst to grow and develop organizations toward their best potential through transformational change gives me great satisfaction. Often, my ideas for change are not necessarily ordinary but they have proven to be extremely effective. Drawing the best from the potential of the teams I have worked with is a proficiency and living with a purpose-driven mindset enables me to inspire those around me. As a Partner with Thriving Workplaces, I offer online courses for leadership development and transformational change.
