About Me

Helping professionals and teams communicate with clarity, confidence, and impact.

I’ve spent my career helping people find their voice — and use it with purpose.

I grew up in the Bay Area of California and earned my undergraduate degree in Communications from Saint Mary’s College of California (Go Gaels!) before completing my Master’s in Communicative Sciences and Disorders at California State University, East Bay. Today, I’m based in Northern California, where I work with clients locally and across the country — in person and virtually.

 

As a licensed speech-language pathologist and communication coach, I’ve worked with professionals and organizations across industries to transform the way they speak, listen, and connect. Whether it’s leading a meeting, giving feedback, presenting to leadership, or managing conflict, communication is the thread that drives success.

My background in speech science gives me a unique edge. I understand not only what people say, but how they say it — and how messages are received, processed, and acted on. Through Clear & Confident Speech Coaching, I combine evidence-based communication strategies with practical, real-world coaching to help individuals and teams build presence, clarity, and trust.

 

I’ve coached executives, healthcare professionals, educators, and financial advisors to communicate with confidence and authenticity. My sessions are interactive and collaborative — filled with actionable tools, role play, and reflection that lead to immediate improvement and lasting results.

 

Because communication isn’t just a skill — it’s your greatest leadership advantage.

What is a Speech Pathologist
What Do we Do?

A speech-language pathologist (SLP) is a communication expert trained in how people speak, listen, and connect.

My background as an SLP gives me a scientific understanding of how communication works; from tone, pacing, and word choice to confidence, presence, and clarity. I use that foundation to help professionals communicate in ways that build trust, strengthen relationships, and drive results.

 

In a corporate setting, that means coaching leaders to deliver their message with clarity and confidence, helping teams collaborate more effectively, and guiding organizations to reduce miscommunication before it starts.

Let’s Work Together

If you want to communicate with greater clarity, confidence, and connection — let’s talk.
Together, we’ll identify what’s holding you back and build a strategy that moves you forward.

"I came to Jennifer while preparing for a major speaking engagement at Grace Hopper Celebration. I had strong content and lived experience, but I wanted help shaping my message, tightening the flow, and showing up on stage with more confidence and presence. What stood out immediately about working with Jennifer was how thoughtful and practical her coaching was. She met me exactly where I was — respected my voice and message — and then helped me elevate it. Our sessions were structured but flexible, with clear strategies I could apply right away. I especially appreciated the balance between content clarity and delivery: how to land key messages, use pauses intentionally, and connect more authentically with the audience. The impact was very real. The presentation was extremely well received, with many people coming up afterward to say how much they related to it and how powerful it felt. I walked on stage feeling grounded, prepared, and confident — not scripted or performative, but genuinely myself. If you’re looking for communication coaching that is supportive, practical, and truly tailored to you (not a one-size-fits-all formula), I highly recommend Jennifer. Working with her was an investment that paid off immediately and will continue to serve me in future talks."
