I am a board-certified emergency medicine physician, healthcare leader and professional coach. I've built my career in high-stakes environments, making critical decisions, leading teams through complexity, and staying grounded when everything around me is moving fast.

I know what it means to carry a lot.
To be capable, relied on, and constantly "on" - both professionally and personally.

I am also a mom, a partner, and someone who understands firsthand the tension of wanting to excel in your career while staying present in your life.
‍
Originally from Michigan, I moved to Portland in 2018, drawn to the balance of the Pacific Northwest's unbeatable mix of mountains, water, and space to breathe. That sense of balance isn't just a lifestyle choice; it's the foundation of how I work and how I coach.

Through Vital Shift Coaching, I work with high-achieving professionals (especially women and working parents), who are used to performing at a high level, but feel stretched, disconnected, or quietly questioning what's next.
‍
My clients aren't looking for more strategies or productivity hacks.
They are looking for clarity. Alignment. Space to think.

I create that space.

Coaching areas of focus:
