I’ve built a solid reputation as a respected career coach among working professionals in the arts and entertainment industry. With deep expertise and professional experience in coaching, as well as multiple areas of the arts and entertainment industry, I have a strong ability to identify and enhance key strengths in individuals to aid in personal development and maximize career potential. As the Curriculum Designer for the acclaimed Creative Path Course curriculum, as well as the Artist Entrepreneurship Program at The New School for Drama, I have created a solid framework for the development of sustainable creative careers. I go through the process with my students, gently encouraging them to be proactive, to step outside of their comfort zone, and to guide them to take the reins of their career. I lead with transparency, confidence, and a light sense of humor. My areas of expertise include: * Coaching & Consulting * Strategic / Business Planning * Team Leadership * Personal Development Curriculum * Training & Development I love championing and supporting individuals and professional groups of progressive creatives who share a desire to better themselves and their teams. A creative, open-minded leader, and heart-centered coach, I drive success through organization, action, and direction— supporting people through strategy and risk-taking to achieve career goals.
