Coach & Develop Executives, Managers, & Employees to Maximize Performance, Teamwork and Leadership

CEOs, senior-level executives, managers, and employees call me their strategic advantage. I’m a combination of a team building expert, Chief People Officer, organizational psychologist, and a high-performance trainer.

I’m highly effective at maximizing performance, building great teams, training managers to perform in the top 1% and helping employees make a significant impact in their roles. Clients also work with me for conflict resolution and employee engagement.

My zone of genius lies in helping successful individuals reach that even higher level. I’m even better when it comes to teams and entire organizations.

Here’s a snapshot of my background.

The Personal Side

Your time is a hot commodity. You don’t need to spend it reading about my childhood or favorite foods. I’ll keep this short:

I live in Dallas, Texas (and have lived in NY, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Bozeman (Montana) and spent one year in London, NYC and Boston).

I have a curious and energetic 2 year old mini aussie shepherd (Romeo) and Border doodle puppy (Jack).

I’m very active with charity events and cultural organizations such as Dallas Museum of Art, Young Texans for Cancer, and American Cancer Society (and raised more than $1 million dollars for charity)…huge sports fan — knock the Cowboys or Mavericks and you’ll have me to deal with…and love meeting new people (I’m and extrovert with introvert tendencies for reading, reflection and research). I also ran my first three marathons in 2018/2019 Chicago, Philadelphia and Phoenix (and the Dallas half-marathon). Love to read and listen to podcasts. 

And fine, if you’re dying to know: I love champagne, sushi and barbecue. Separately.

So Are we doing this?

If you want to get your strategic advantage for you and your team (along with your career), here’s the place to start.
