About me



I live my life by the words of Edward Cell. A theme that pervades my life is taking calculated risks to learn about myself and others, and about our world. I have deliberately put myself in situations beyond my comfort zone to test my limits: I participated in Outward Bound, I am a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer - Ukraine 1994-1996, I returned to graduate school as an adult to earn my doctoral degree and again to be certified as a life coach. I initiated several innovative programs as an educator; I teach experientially, an alternative approach to instruction.

I am the mother of a disabled son and I know first-hand its heartaches, strains, and joys. To coaching, I bring compassion for those in similar situations, and knowledge of resources available to parents and/or caretakers of disabled loved ones.

Engagement within my community is also important to me; I have served in volunteer positions as a support group leader for my local chapter of the National Alliance for Mental Illness (NAMI), as vice-chair of the advisory board for our county's volunteer center, as liaison for a mental health referral service, as chairperson of a cooperative education nursery school, and as a food server in a local soup kitchen.

I hold degrees in psychology, counseling, writing and experiential education; I am certified as a coach by the Hudson Institute of Santa Barbara, and a member of the International Coach Federation (ICF) and uphold the latter's statement of ethics for coaches.

My goal is to remain involved in my professional and personal growth so that, like my coaching clients, I continue to grow and to learn as a result of these experiences.
