Wherever your place and identity in the world, whatever you do for work, whatever way you like to spend your time, and whatever political inclination you feel most connected to, you probably have felt, at some point, a bit (or a lot) overwhelmed by what they call “the state of the world.” Maybe sometimes you feel angry, other times hopeless, sometimes you will even cope with cynicism or intellectualising with “that’s the history of humanity,” or maybe you might wish with every bone in your body that the other side “would just wake up.”

Whatever your corner of the world, you can work towards a greater harmony at both individual and organizational levels. The ways to do this are as varied as the individuals and the organizations they are a part of. Come work with me to figure out what that is for you so that you may feel a little less hopeless, a little less angry, a little less disconnected, and maybe a little more visionary.

I am an organizational coach specializing in leadership, communication, and teamwork. With a background spanning private industry, higher education, non-profit organizations, and government, I bring a unique perspective to the challenges and opportunities we face today.
 

I took my organizational coaching certification in 2016 with CICO and I hold a BA in International Development Studies from McGill University. I spend a lot of time thinking about systems, relationality, anti-racism, the intersection between social media and collective action, community engagement, trauma resilience, and incorporating heart-centeredness in daily life.
