Years ago, I was a stressed-out, anxious lawyer. The daily pressure of high performance took a toll, leading me to burnout and forcing me to confront the reality of my life: depression, health challenges, strained relationships, and unhealthy coping mechanisms.

Hitting rock bottom was my wake-up call. It pushed me to face my anxiety, process past trauma, and learn to sit with my emotions rather than run from them. Through this journey, I discovered the power of authenticity—living in alignment with my true values—and learned to master my mind, rather than be controlled by it.

Now, I live a life filled with purpose, meaning, and joy.

More About My Work

I facilitate personal and leadership transformation by guiding individuals and organizations to lead with authenticity. Through highly customized coaching and development programs, I support people in navigating challenges, mastering their emotions, and leading with integrity and resilience.

I’m passionate about redefining mental health—not just as the absence of problems, but as the foundation of thriving leadership and well-being. Drawing on both my professional expertise and personal experiences, I work with leaders in demanding environments, helping them cultivate emotional resilience, align with their core values, and achieve sustainable success just as who they are.

I believe that true leadership starts from within. By embracing authenticity, individuals and organizations can create meaningful connections, make better decisions, and achieve extraordinary results.
