About Me

I grew up in the Bay Area of California and have spent my career studying how people connect. I 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.

​

I work with clients locally and across the country—both in person and virtually.

​

The Science Behind the Strategy

What makes my approach different? I am a Licensed Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP). My background in speech science gives me a unique edge: I understand not only what people say, but the mechanics of how they say it—and how those messages are processed and acted on.

​

Through Clear & Confident Speech Coaching, I go beyond "presentation tips" to help you master:

• Presence & Authority: How to own the room and build trust.

• Clarity & Pacing: Ensuring your message is processed and understood.

• Strategic Communication: Navigating meetings, feedback, and conflict.

​

Expertise Built Over 20 Years

For over two decades, I’ve coached executives, healthcare professionals, educators, and financial advisors. Whether leading a meeting or presenting to leadership, I believe communication is the thread that drives success.

​

How We Work

My sessions are interactive, collaborative, and designed for immediate results. We use:

• Actionable Tools: Strategies you can use the same day.

• Real-World Role Play: Practicing your specific high-stakes scenarios.

• Evidence-Based Coaching: Grounding every shift in the science of communication.

​

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