A Little About Me

I am a retired educator with 28 years of experience as a teacher, assistant principal, principal, and assistant superintendent. My unique experience teaching and coaching leaders is exactly what you need to help you take control of your life and find your peace. Over the past decade, I have led over 2,000 coaching conversations about leadership, time management, and money planning.

My Core Values

I deeply value and appreciate the gifts I have been blessed with and strive to give back to others. I prioritize building strong relationships with my clients. I believe that to support them fully, I must truly know and understand them deeply. My relationships with clients are not superficial or transactional but are emotionally rich and meaningful. I value asking questions before giving advice. I recognize that my clients don’t necessarily need me to solve their problems; instead, they need me to ask the right questions to help them become better problem solvers and preventers. I am deeply committed to continuous learning and personal growth, and I understand the importance of sharing that learning with my clients. I also believe in the importance of my clients doing the same so our relationship remains mutually beneficial.

YNAB Certified Coaching

I am a YNAB Certified Budgeting Coach, meaning I have been trained to coach people on using YNAB software and the YNAB budgeting method.  I have met select requirements of You Need a Budget LLC to receive this certification, so I can competently coach YNAB to others.  I am not an employee of YNAB, and all non-YNAB-related opinions and recommendations are my own.  My views do not reflect the views of YNAB, its employees, or its affiliates.  I am also not a financial advisor or counselor.
