Personal Details

Bio

I'm a strategic business consultant with 25+ years of business experience with a focus on leadership development, human capital, psychology, wellness, communication, sales, marketing, strategy, change, and growth. As a result, I have a seasoned perspective on how to grow business and develop leaders.

I provide strategic business solutions for people and organizations with learning assessments, training, and development empowering people with the skills they need to drive success at their organization. For me, helping others grow is the most rewarding part of consulting, facilitating, and speaking.

I hold two master degrees, an MBA from the University of Texas of the Permian Basin and an MS in Strategic Communication from Columbia University in the City of New York, and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a minor in Communication Studies, Summa Cum Laude, from the University of Houston-Downtown. Currently earning a PhD. in Organizational Leadership from Concordia University Chicago.

While my speaking engagements and consulting have taken me around the world, I currently reside in Houston, Texas. Outside of the office, I enjoy snow skiing, water skiing, night bike skiing, sailing, flying planes (and jumping out of them), climbing 14ers, SUP, kayaking, biking, hiking, helping animals and those in need.
