Personal empowerment is at the core of my focus with everyone I coach. This includes adults dealing with life transitions and wellness issues, couples rebalancing their relationships, students thriving within their academic and social challenges, and parents wanting to optimize their children’s development.

I graduated from Montclair University with a bachelor’s degree in Psychology, before becoming a nationally certified Master Life Coach. I also completed extensive AMS certification training at the Montessori Center for Teacher Development.

My involvement with the perspectives and practices of Optimum Living began in the early 1990’s when I began working here as a Group Facilitator and Assistant to the Director.

Along with Life Coaching, my professional experience has included being an FMLA Counselor and Case Manager for AT&T, a Group Facilitator for women at the Chatham Senior Center, a teacher at The Montessori Children’s Academy, and a teacher trainer at The Montessori Center for Teacher Development.

Outside of my professional roles, I am a wife and mother, a lover of nature and music, and a service-minded community volunteer. Before getting married, I spent many months providing on-site aid to villagers in Ghana and spent many years as a board member of the Kopeyia Ghana School Fund.
