Meet America’s Top Expert at Making Things Happen

When people asked, “what do you want to be?” and I said, “a Della Street to an attorney like Perry Mason,” they looked at me like I was crazy. Maybe it was because I was working at a gas station at the time.

As I rose through the legal ranks in San Jose and San Francisco, my colleagues gave me those same looks when I said I’d live in Washington D.C. one day.  They thought I was even crazier when I sold my stuff, got in my car and drove there without a job!

But I did have a dream and the desire to make it real.

It took major strategic thinking and initiative to break into a tough D.C. job market. That experience honed my career development skills and since then I’ve served as an adviser for career seeking clients and some of the most powerful attorneys and decision-makers in the area.

Leading, Teaching and Getting Results

Consulting with general counsels for the National Education Association for 15 years, getting the votes out on national campaigns, managing a $23 million legal program and creating innovative training honed my natural talent for quickly zeroing in on issues, solving complex problems and building lasting relationships nationwide.  As a calming presence, I was tapped to mediate union issues and design and facilitate group efforts to solve problems and reach performance goals.

The renowned, international law firm of Patton Boggs LLP recruited me to create a university and career development program for its 600 attorneys.  Within three years it was an award-winning university ranked 15^th in the nation. When I moved back to the West coast, the firm hired me to continue coaching attorneys on leadership and professional development and to train staff.

Providing You the Environmental Winning Edge

A life-long passion and sensitivity to environments led me to learn about how your work and home environment affect your energy, your motivation and your performance and ultimate happiness.

If you’ve ever walked into a high-powered board room, why is the person at the head of the table assumed to be in charge? Or if you walk into an office, why is the person behind a big desk assumed to be in charge? Why a big desk? It’s all situational energy and positioning. Time and again my experiences, my client’s experiences, and even science proves that the impact of your environment is very real.  It sends a message, creates power, instills confidence and can even cause fear.

So, if you think the art of designing healthy spaces or the principles of Feng Shui, which have been around for more than 4,000 years, don’t work, think again. You’re probably already using some of this philosophy in your work and life and you just don’t know it.  I have consulted with architects, business owners, realtors, deans of educational institutions, and individuals to create environments that support goal achievement and peak performance internationally.

Delivering Authentic Transformation

When you realize success doesn’t equal happiness, you need the wisdom and the know how to do something different.  As an innovative, intuitive, holistic and creative problem solver in a left-brained, driven field with high-powered professionals in a power town like Washington, DC, I often felt like a fish out of water.  But I made it work for me.  “Making it work” for too long can lead to burned out and overwhelming chaos many suffer in today’s work environment.  I teach people solutions for creating an authentic career and a happier life, whether or not you’re in your ideal work environment.

Your Strategic Solutions Partner

Every day, I work with people who are seeking career and personal happiness as well as leaders in business and government who want problems solved.  And every day, my goal is to provide innovative solutions that get results.

• As a director of training, I learned a lot about how an adult brain functions and how to get results.  I apply that knowledge to transform businesses, careers and lives.
• Likewise, my time in the trenches and study of human dynamics taught me what makes people repeat the same old worn-out patterns that can hold you back or hold you down and what sparks the desire and the ability to make positive change.
  
• Working with high-powered attorneys I learned how to instantly zero in on issues so within a three-minute conversation I can help you weed out what is getting in your way and offer solutions for greater ease and a life that is more fulfilling.
