WHAT I’M WORKING ON RIGHT NOW

(Inspired by Derek Sivers)

Role: Executive & Professional ICF Associate Certified Coach (ACC)

• In September 2025, I joined the leading online platform for consumer coaching. I’ve been coaching professional creatives as they navigate feeling stuck at work, burn out, career pivots, solopreneur life, and designing more fulfilling professional lives. I write about these universal professional themes on my blog and how to combat them.

• One of my professional coaching businesses, The Coaching Consortium, presented at this year’s Columbia University’s 2025 coaching conference in October. The whole conference was fab. I’m still unpacking all of my takeaways. Here’s a blog about one takeaway.

• I’m a pro bono executive coach for a female nonprofit impact leader through The Women’s Impact Alliance (WIA). Such a fantastic experience to be part of this leader’s professional growth.

• I’m a few coaching hours away to applying for my PCC level credential with International Coaching Federation. I’m aiming to have this done within a year of my ACC credential.

• I’m taking on private professional coaching clients and I specialize in working with creatives. Contact me about setting up a discovery session.

Role: Licensed Master Social Worker & Food Allergy Coach

• Since 2006, I’ve worked with private practice food allergy coaching clients and supported them with life-threatening food allergies and anxiety. I continue to see a limited number of private practice counseling clients dealing with issues around managing chronic medical conditions. If this is you, contact me about setting up a discovery session.

Role: Applied Improv Facilitator

• I’m facilitating a writing and applied improv workshop at the Literary Arts Bridge at Dartmouth College for the Dartmouth Writing Club in November and for the larger Hanover and Dartmouth community in January 2026. If you’re part of the Dartmouth community, come on by!

• I’m currently booking additional corporate applied improvisation workshops Q1 2026.

Role: Writer/Editor

• My romance novel draft is in my agent’s hands for next steps.

• I’ve started drafting romance novel two.

• I’m a published nonfiction author (Wiley, 2011). I was nominated for a Pushcart for micro fiction. My poetry has been published in various journals.

• I have my MFA in Writing and Literature and teach writing and writing & improv workshops.

• For over 15 years, I’ve been a freelance editor, line editor, copy editor, and proofreader. Most recently, I worked for Medium.com and HelloFresh.

Role: Musical Improviser/Performer

• Leaning about and performing short form improv with Valley Improv has been so much fun. We have shows coming up this winter 2026 at Sawtooth in Hanover, NH. Hope to see you at one of those!

• I’m a founding member of the musical improv team, Redshirts, which has been going strong since 2014. We have shows coming up in NYC. Check our Facebook and Insta pages for upcoming shows and dates.

• I’m a founding member of two additional non-musical improv teams that are currently active: The Bagelsteins & Close to Home. It’s a joy to play with them.

Role: Mentor

• I’ve been mentoring psychology majors (all women) heading to graduate programs at William Paterson University since 2014. It’s gratifying to support young women navigate school-life balance as well as prepare them for graduate school and their professional lives.

Role: Master Home Chef & Pastry Chef (all dishes are nut-free, fish-free, and most are gluten-free)

• Last summer, I made this focaccia recipe, adding garlic-herb with four cheese and now my in-laws are so obsessed, I’ve been making it bi-weekly for now two years!
