With over 25 years of experience in Training, Coaching, and adjunct techniques, I am primed and passionate about sharing transformational approaches to change and self-improvement. Groomed in the corporate culture of some of the most recognizable brands in history including AT&T, Sony, IBM, Walt Disney and the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, I am the consummate team player and in continual pursuit of excellence. I am a natural facilitator blessed with diverse skill and deep connection to people, leveraging the intellectual and creative aspects of my personality toward helping others leverage inner resources and achieve their full potential. I received my training from industry experts and thought leaders such as Tony Robbins and Chloe Madanes, BJ Fogg, Joey Hubbard, Matthew Brownstein, Richard Bandler, and Roy Hunter. I am the former Lead Instructor of the Institute of Interpersonal Hypnotherapy, and Chief Education Officer for the school’s parent organization, Anahat Education Group, Inc and a sought-after speaker for public and private events as well as a valued guest instructor at Nova Southeastern University and East-West College of Natural Medicine.
My personal philosophy is “growth through helping others” and my own personal transformation through these techniques continues to be an integral part of the quality and character of the care I extend to others. I believe tending to the human spirit by partnering creativity with knowledge broadens one’s sense of ability and empowerment. Facilitating training, coaching, and hypnosis is a natural expression of this purpose.
