For twenty years, I built my career across industries: retail, restaurants, and then into finance, marketing, and corporate training. For many of those years, I was drowning with undiagnosed depression. When I finally came face to face with it, I saw it only as a thief, a monstrous entity that took and took without giving anything back.

 

Depression has a way of making you an expert in translation. You're constantly bridging the gap between how you feel and how you need to appear. You learn to read every room, manage every perception, perform every role except yourself.

​

The breakthrough came when I realized my survival skill was actually a superpower. All those years of translating between my inner and outer worlds had made me fluent in the space between people. Depression gave me the tools, but it was my discovery of DISC that gave me the framework. I understood why we miss each other, why we hide, why we perform instead of connect.

​

My background in finance taught me to see patterns and systems. Marketing showed me how perception shapes reality. Training taught me how adults actually change. But my own journey taught me what matters: that everyone's fighting something, that clarity beats charisma, and that real connection happens when we stop pretending we have it all figured out.

​

I'm not your guru. I'm not selling perfect. I'm someone who knows what it's like when success feels empty and every interaction feels like work. I also know what's possible when you finally understand yourself and others clearly enough to drop the act. Connection. Friendship. Love. Community.

​

People are the purpose. Communication is everything.

​

This work isn't just what I do. It's my passion and my purpose.
