About Me

My work as a health coach grew out of a belief that when we have the right connections, support, and environment, we can create long-lasting and meaningful changes to improve our well-being. As a registered nurse, I have provided countless hours of education and encouragement that have made a huge difference in the lives of my patients as they navigate their health journeys. The RN roles I have held span hospital, office, and home care settings, with experience in cardiology, behavioral health and addictions, primary care, diabetes management, and hospice. As a health coach, I have even greater opportunity to contribute to my clients' overall wellness goals, as coaching is often the missing link between knowledge and sustained behavior change.

Here in the 518, there are some healthcare offices incorporating coaching into their patient care models, but it is not yet common practice. I continue to work part-time as a hospice nurse while also serving a small number of coaching clients at a time. This allows me to engage in two very different but equally meaningful fields of expertise, as well as giving me the freedom and time to best meet the needs of my coaching clients.
