If there are two words that describe me, they are passionate and relentless. I love what I do, and I’m committed to showing up every day.
I am lucky to say my life has been rich in experience and lessons! I grew up in Montreal, went to university in Los Angeles (Go Trojans! Go Lions!), and I have traveled to more than 29 countries.
I played water polo for fourteen years, becoming a Junior World Champion at seventeen and continuing on to win various international medals with Team Canada, including two silver medals at the Pan American Games and a silver medal at World Aquatic Championships. While attending university in Los Angeles at the University of Southern California, our team also won a silver medal at NCAA Championships.
I studied Biology and Music in university yet ultimately have become an executive and leadership coach, workshop facilitator and organizational development enthusiast.
My mission in life is:
To empower people to master themselves and pursue that which stirs their hearts, so they die without regret.
I am an associate certified coach with the International Coach Federation as well as an Integral Professional Coach with Integral Coaching Canada. I’m certified in seven different personality and talent assessments (MBTI, StrengthsFinder, Birkman, TotalSDI, Strong, Nova, EQ-i 2.0). I work across a variety of industries (finance, medical, landscape, startup, sport, manufacturing) in Leadership Training and People Development. I get fired up to lead workshops and coach clients on a 1-on-1 basis.
I recently took on a role as Global Director of Organizational Development at a multinational organization, iEC Holden (kinda fun!). I also am an associate with the number one sport consulting firm in Canada, the Sport Law and Strategy Group.
When I’m not doing all I’ve mentioned above, you’ll find me hanging with my friends and fam and making an effort to keep fit.
At the end of the day, I believe change starts at home, that it’s better to light one candle than curse the darkness, that having meaningful goals can make all the difference, and that you and I can very well do something to make this world more beautiful.
