Advisory & Mentoring
No, I’m not Yoda — but I do know the value of having someone in your corner.
When you’re leading a team or building a business, it’s easy to get stuck in the weeds. A fresh set of eyes can help you see the patterns, reconnect with your strengths, and find clarity where things feel tangled.
What I bring to the table:
A thinking partner for leaders and founders
Support with tough decisions, strategic planning, and next steps
Coaching that builds resilience and renewed confidence
“The delicate balance of mentoring someone is not creating them in your own image, but giving them the opportunity to create themselves.” — Steven Spielberg
