She’s not the loudest bird in the tree—but she’s the one who helps you hear yourself.

The Plaid Bird perches at the edge of your story, her red crest lifted in quiet courage. She doesn’t offer advice or quick fixes. Instead, she listens deeply and notices the threads that make you you—even those you’ve forgotten or tried to silence.

Her plaid lei, woven with meaning, reflects the journey of growth and discovery. Some threads come from books that cracked something open—for example, Bird by Bird by Annie Lamott, a reminder that progress happens one small step at a time. Others are drawn from life: the ache of burnout, the clarity gained through travel, the relief of finally naming what you truly want. Many are woven from coaching moments—those quiet, true exchanges where everything shifts when you’re seen and heard.

I see myself in the Plaid Bird. She embodies how I coach: present, grounded, curious. I’m not here to give you a script or fix what’s “wrong.” I’m here to help you pause, listen, and explore the story you’re telling—questioning whether it still fits or if there’s a new one waiting to be written.

Before coaching, I spent years in Human Resources, often trying to solve other people’s problems before they even expressed them. I burned out. I realized there had to be a different way—a way that trusted your innate capacity rather than just your performance. Coaching opened that door for me.

Now, I work with leaders eager to show up with clarity and lead authentically from a place of alignment—whether one-on-one or in groups. I hold space for those story moments that matter: the ones that nudge you toward a decision, a truth, or a different kind of leadership.

Because big change doesn’t happen all at once—we work bird by bird. You already know how to fly. I’m here to help you remember that, listen for what’s true, and walk alongside you as your story unfolds.
