LIFE & LEADERSHIP COACHING
MY INTERESTS
Creativity and the arts are a large part of my life. I am a writer and enthusiastic audience member of live music, dance, and theatre. In 2018, I completed my first play, Take Down The Letters, and it was produced in Lafayette and New Orleans, Louisiana. My second play is entitled, What Matters, and I am seeking developmental opportunities for it. My third play was an adaptation of a book. It is currently on hold as the book has been optioned for a movie. I am currently thinking about the topic for my next play and conjuring ideas for other writing projects.
I love supporting others in their creative journeys.
​
I enjoy walking in my neighborhood and on the beach, hiking in the woods, practicing Pilates, and tending my garden. I love to read and travel, exploring new places and ideas on and off the page. Being a steward of the natural environment and supporting social justice issues are important to me.
​
I will help you to discover and pursue your interests so that you may weave the strands of your life into a unique design.
​
I have recently moved back to Oakland, CA and am accepting new clients at this time.
