As a trained wellness professional, she brings a background in mind/body connection, helping leaders listen, strategize, and execute from a grounded place of strength. Following strategic and campaign planning, she advises leaders and teams to successfully implement the plans and bring about desired changes in the team and organization. Behavioral and organizational change that are sustainable and dependable require consistent feedback and dialogue; this advising reinforces the best practices for change management to best achieve goals and sustainability.
