Frequently asked questions

I bring over 20 years of IT consulting and leadership experience, rising from entry-level roles to director positions, managing global teams, and negotiating multimillion-dollar contracts with companies like Amazon and Google.

Just like you, I've faced self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and the challenge of learning new roles quickly and developed proven strategies to overcome them.

As a Certified Stress Management Coach, I combine practical tools, real-world experience, and unique methods to help you manage stress, build confidence, adapt to new roles, and create lasting results. My coaching is rooted in real success, not just theory.

I didn't take a traditional path to success. Growing up in poverty and dropping out of school, I worked my way into IT through determination and networking. From there, I built relationships, proved my value, and created opportunities for advancement.

Unlike many coaches, I know what it's like to start from nothing. My coaching is rooted in real experiences, not theories, and I teach you how to navigate challenges, build authentic connections, and turn your story into a strength.

My coaching is practical and results-driven, built on the same strategies I used to rise from entry-level roles to a 6-figure director position.

I teach soft skills like writing impactful emails, creating engaging presentations, and leading productive meetings, alongside more advanced topics like navigating corporate politics, networking with senior leadership, and positioning yourself for growth.

You'll learn how to stand out authentically, build a strong professional reputation, and gain the confidence to grow in any workplace.

My coaching is tailored for students entering internships or thier first professional role, early-career professionals, career changers, and those aiming for leadership roles.

If you're struggling with self-doubt, challenges, or a lack of essential business skills, my strategies will give you the tools you need to succeed.

Coaching is a partnership, not a one-sided service. While I provide the tools, guidance, and support, your results depend on your commitment, effort, and willingness to take action.

Unlike a haircut or a meal where the provider is in full control, coaching requires both of us to be actively involved.

While I can't guarantee specific outcomes, I do guarantee a space for growth, honest conversations, and resources to help you succeed if you're ready to put in the work.
