Expanding beyond my earlier work as a professor and program director (organization development) at American University, my focus and purpose now are to support executives, managers, professional staff and transitioners -- as well as teams, boards and organizations -- in the journey of breakthrough change. Seeing clients accomplish their goals is the most rewarding aspect of a beloved career.
To better support clients in career or retirement transitions, I am completing requirements to become a Certified Retirement Coach (Oct. 2018).
