About

I'm a professional performance and career development coach. I've worked with professionals across industries, like healthcare, tech, entertainment, and beyond.

Before that, I was a special needs orthodontist, focusing on the care of kids with clefts, syndromes, and facial differences. I worked in hospitals and universities, teaching around the world. I loved it.

As a former fulltime program director and professor at UCLA, I coached graduate students and young professionals applying to residency programs as well as in their careers. I loved that also.

But, far too often I saw even experienced professionals lose out on opportunities because they struggled to advocate for themselves, whether it was negotiations, goal-setting (and achieving), or effective communication. So, I created my business. And, I love it.

As a coach, I now enjoy working with professionals across industries in early and mid-stage careers to build lasting life and business skills to be confident and successful.
