does this SOUND FAMILIAR?
-
I wake up with dread knowing it'll be another day that work takes over and I'm not picking up my paint brush.
-
I constantly feel like my work schedule is so overwhelming that I can't even think about getting in a quick workout or practice session.
-
My guitar is gathering dust in the corner because I am too exhausted when I get home from work to get together with my friends and play.
-
My work- and personal- lives are so separate that I feel like I'm leading two competing lives and I'm drained.

(If any of those rung a bell, you could absolutely benefit from coaching!)
(If any of those sounded like a dream come true, read on to see how we can make it happen!)
What if it sounded more like this?
-
As you walk past your studio in the morning, you smile at the still-drying oil paint, knowing that you spent quality time in there the night before and that it'll be waiting for you when you get home.
-
As you boot up your work computer, you feel a sense of relief because your personal projects have been integrated into and balanced with your work schedule, giving you something to look forward to each day.
-
As you walk through your door in the evening, you feel content and excited to start making music again.
-
You feel energized because you've incorporated your values into both your job and your art so that one doesn't seem to be overpowering the other.
ABOUT ME
My journey as a coach started because I was totally stuck! I’d tried a bunch of different careers and was constantly losing sight of my own artistic practices in the process. I’d been in food service, digital imaging, customer service, management, and finally education, as a professor and an advisor. All the while, I had also been an actor, singer, musician, dancer, painter, and wanna-be writer.
Because of the ups and downs of my job journey, my art was constantly on the back-burner, and without that as an outlet, I was getting bored, frustrated, and confused about why my work wasn’t fulfilling. I was off-kilter and it was showing up in the classroom and in my own personal projects.
(To clarify, when I started teaching acting, I LOVED it, so I was extra lost when I was excited to turn in for the day. In fact, even through all this, I still teach acting because I love taking my kiddos on that journey as well.)
I needed a way to balance myself out. And that’s exactly what I did, analyzing and shifting my habits and outlooks, among other things, to help me craft my own journey on my own terms. And I can help you do that too!

PS. This is me and my best boy, Ruby, making a shift to our habits by actually sitting on a hill and not just constantly climbing them.
What is coaching?
Coaching is a method of conversation and goal-setting that allows us to explore the possibilities for your present and future.
​
My approach is action focused. We will absolutely talk about you vision of the future, as well as any obstacle that are in the way, and then I will gently pull you from the motion phase to the action phase.
​
We may reference the past, but our objective is to redefine habits, create new actions, and set obtainable goals to get you to your best self.
​
This is a side-by-side process. We are partners in this journey, one question and discovery at a time. As James Clear says, "Change is easy when it's enjoyable!"
confidence boost:
This is a one time starter session where we will identify your values, investigate how they show up currently in your life, and find new ways for them to show up more in the future. You'll get a taste of my style of coaching, as well as the structure of a typical session, including growth work! It'll also give me a chance to meet you!​
​
The Quick Rebalance is one 45 minute session for $97 USD.
