WHAT I’M WORKING ON RIGHT NOW
(Inspired by Derek Sivers)
Role: Executive & Professional ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC)
After 18 months of work, training, and learning, I’ve passed my video and written exams and am now a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) with the International Coaching Federation.
I have a private coaching practice working with executives, C-suite, managers, senior leaders, and founders across sectors. I bring particular depth in two areas: healthcare and high-demand fields (drawing on two decades in the patient-advocacy and behavioral-health world) and creatives, which I define broadly. Contact me about setting up a discovery session.
May 2026, I was honored to be spotlighted by the International Coaching Federation New York City Chapter on LinkedIn as a Rising Member. Thank you ICF!
I’m a pro-bono executive coach for two women’s organizations: Women With Potential and Women Impact Alliance. I’m happy to work with both of these organizations and support executive C-suite women in NGOs and NPOs.
In September 2025, I joined the leading online platform for consumer career coaching, supporting clients through career transitions.
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.
Role: Licensed Master Social Worker, Patient Advocate, Health Coach, Food Allergy Coach
Since 2006, I've worked with private-practice clients on managing chronic medical conditions, life-threatening food allergies, and the anxiety that comes with them. I continue to see a limited number of private practice counseling clients navigating life with chronic medical conditions. If this is you, contact me about setting up a discovery session.
Role: Applied Improv Facilitator
I’m facilitated writing and applied improv workshops at the Literary Arts Bridge at Dartmouth College.
I was honored to be interviewed by Dartmouth Alumni mag in May 2026 about my experience working with the Literary Arts Bridge at Dartmouth College in its inaugural year. The article will feature me (!) this Fall 2026.
I’m currently booking additional corporate applied improvisation workshops Q3-Q4 2026.
Role: Writer/Editor
My contemporary romance novel is in my agent’s hands for next steps. I’m working on a second contemporary romance novel. When I have a spare 30 minutes, that’s usually what I’m doing: writing.
I’ve started a Substack called 5 Things. Come on over!
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
Learning about and performing short form improv with Valley Improv since June 2025 has been so much fun. We have shows coming up at Sawtooth in Hanover, NH. Hope to see you at one of those!
I’m a founding member of the musical improv team, Redshirts, who traveled the improv performance galaxy for 12 years. I’m also a founding member of 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)
Two summers ago, 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 two years!
I made the viral sheet pan beef kebabs last night, served with veggie salad and tzatziki. So yum!
