Why Trust Me With Your Next Chapter?

My work approach is built on a unique blend of 30+ years of helping people navigate major life and career decisions through my experience in military leadership, career counseling, and executive strategy:

  • US Naval Academy Graduate and Former Marine Corps Officer As a U.S. Naval Academy graduate (’96) and former U.S. Marine Corps Aviation Intelligence Officer, I know what it takes to transition from uniform to civilian life. My career began by developing future Navy and Marine Corps leaders and later expanded to mentoring exchange students, high school students, families, and professionals.

  • Certified School Counselor Armed with a Master’s in Educational Counseling from National University (’04), I spent seven years as a Professional School Counselor in California and Maine helping students navigate the high-stakes decisions of preparing them for post-secondary life.

  • 30+ Years Helping People Navigate Major Life and Career Decisions  For 17 years I served as an Educational Services Specialist (ESS) where I managed and advised future career and educational pathways for nearly one hundred thousand students in 175 high schools and career programs in the states of Maine and New Hampshire.

  • Strategic Leadership Experience I hold an MBA in Leadership from Saint Joseph’s College of Maine (’18) and, while serving as an ESS, I was also a Program Manager responsible for training educators and government employees, as well as coordinating services and asset allocation between school administrators, students, families and the Department of Defense.

I look forward to putting that experience to work for you!
