Transform dreaming
into doing
We all need help to take a leap forward sometimes.
I can help you leap deliberately and boldly. I help people find and thrive in careers that activate their values, challenge their minds, and contribute to the world.
The Coaching Experience
Maybe you feel like you are in a rut, want a more meaningful career, or need to amplify your impact.
I will help you gain clarity about your goals, create a roadmap to achieve them and be your champion as you move along your path.
Coaching involves a series of transformational conversations to align your career with your values, challenge the beliefs that hold you back, and guide you to step outside your comfort zone. It is an iterative process driven by inquiry and focused on impact.
I am a trained co-active coach. This coaching method starts with the assumption that every client is creative, resourceful and whole. My job is to guide you to discover your dreams and activate your talents in order to achieve your goal. I will help you stay accountable to yourself throughout the process.
As a communications entrepreneur and a nonprofit leader, I do more than coach, I offer actionable advice to tell your story, craft your brand, and strengthen your network—all essential for leadership and impact.
If this would be helpful to you, let’s talk.
About Me
After a short-lived career in corporate advertising, I pivoted to nonprofit communications, and found my professional home. I built a decades-long successful career by doing work I believe in alongside colleagues I connect with.
After running multiple communications departments, I created a successful consulting firm that worked with foundations and nonprofits nationwide. In the process I rebranded organizations, raised millions of dollars, and mentored young people to become leaders.
Now, I am helping others to do well by doing good.

From My Clients
-
“Working with Amy has been instrumental. She provided a path in an unmarked forest, helping me map out the needed steps to reach my goal. When I veered off with habits and patterns that were self-sabotaging, she helped me identify strategies to overcome them. When I became overwhelmed, she enabled me to focus my efforts and set priorities. When my “to do’s” got in the way of progress, she kept me honest and accountable to myself. Having Amy on my team has been integral to reaching my goals during a scary and ambiguous time.”

“Amy provided a needed source of stability during an anxiety-inducing period in my career and life. She helped me to identify negative thinking patterns that were holding me back and gave me ideas for how to respond to them and question my assumptions. When I was facing a difficult decision, she helped me to focus my priorities and think through my concerns and tactical decisions. She is also open to feedback and adjusting her coaching style based on what works for each client. Knowing she is a resource helps me feel more confident in my career.”
