My Story

In over a decade of international coaching and consulting, I’ve had the opportunity to partner with companies like Google, The New York Times, The International Rescue Committee, Spotify, Deloitte, Credit Suisse, Stanford University, the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), Commonwealth Fusion Systems, and Filene Research Institute. I’ve supported speakers at the World Economic Forum, the United Nations, and global TED stages (over 3 million views).

Here’s how I got there…

Early Life in the Arts

Raised on television sets in New York City, I learned very early on the dual joy of owning the spotlight and inspiring audiences. 35 years and two careers later, I’m guiding others towards their own mastery.

Coming from a family of film, television, and Broadway actors, my first introduction to human inspiration was through the performing arts. Following in the family footsteps, I trained in Musical Theatre at Syracuse University and Shakespeare's Globe Theatre in London, and embarked on a thrilling acting career. I had the opportunity to showcase work at Cannes International Film Festival, Israel’s International Arts Festival, the Shanghai Performing Arts Center, and many theatres across the United States from Alaska to New York City. It was an incredibly fulfilling time. 

Finding Purpose

Ultimately, my passion evolved into showing others that--no matter their background--they too could command a room. I’ve spent the last 10+ years coaching professionals and teams across industries on their communication and performance, as well as supporting speakers on major global stages like TED, the World Economic Forum, and the United Nations, and serving as head pitch coach for several business accelerators in the United States.

Wearing the multi-hyphenate hat, I love the opportunity to produce and creative direct special events, including TEDxUNPlaza in New York City, with keynote speaker Former United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, and several million-dollar corporate events.

I split my year between Manhattan and London, where I am continuing to work to make this world a better place, every single day.
