Experience the Power of Coaching
About Coaching
In the workplace, we are constantly navigating power and privilege which can create barriers to achieving the outcomes we want in life and career. These dynamics establish patterns of behavior and belief that can limit us in times of transition and transformation. This is especially true for Black and brown professionals and those from marginalized identity intersections.
In coaching engagements, I provide a space to "unpack your bag." My coaching practice aims to draw out your beliefs, values, and capacity for change. Self-awareness and confidence developed through coaching can get you more closely aligned with the ways of working and being that are best for you and the future you imagine.
Here’s what you can expect out of a coaching partnership with me:
Safe space for vulnerability & authenticity in processing career dissatisfaction or misalignment
Support through critical career moments (e.g. job search/interviews, career transitions, performance & feedback conversations, promotions, compensation negotiations, etc.)
Developing authentic brand and advancement strategies in the workplace
Clarifying and exploring personal and career vision

Coaching Experience
Coaching engagements follow a curated process that supports you in developing self-trust and reclaiming solitude in service of your most ideal life and career. Through guided inquiry, affirmation, meditative practices, journaling, and other tools to help surface the insights you need to live whole and healthy. I guide many of my coach partners through career transitions and elevations. Together we address the core questions of:
who am I called to be?
what is my vision for impact?
how can I access my imagination in service of my vision?
what do I want to let go of in service of my vision?
how do I live in alignment with my highest values?
My coaching and community offerings are anchored by three pillars of exploration:
Self + Community Care
Ritualize tools and practices that fuel yourself and your community as you navigate transitions and elevations.
Self-Trust
Regain personal clarity and confidence in your unique value and vision for impact.
Sustained Success
Redefine what impact looks like beyond the norms of oppressive structures and bias.
I prioritize values of empathy, transparency, care, and safety in coaching engagements and guide engagements through the ICF Code of Ethics. I am certified through the International Coaching Federation (ICF) and the Presence Project Resonance Program. Additional terms and conditions are available here.
