I am an Executive Coach / Leadership Development Advisor specializing in the life sciences and biotech. In these industries, you often have:- Brilliant academicians, scientists, and physicians with limited leadership experience. - Individuals who've worked solo and must transition to a collaborative team environment.- A strong learning mentality that makes them terrific candidates for coaching.- And having been both a food chemist and a therapist, I relate to and love this demographic! Before founding my business in 2002, I was a senior high-tech recruiter for Winter Wyman in Boston, a corporate leadership coach for the UNICCO Services Company, and a psychotherapist. I have a BS in Food Chemistry and a MA in Counseling Psychology. My background gives me an in-depth understanding of a wide variety of personalities, functions, and industries.
