ABOUT ME

I was promoted to manager at the peak of my engineering career. Like many first-time managers, I stepped into the role with confidence—and the arrogance that comes with not knowing what you don’t know. I stumbled through a long, painful transition, and my managers—who were struggling just as much—couldn’t guide me.

Then, with encouragement and support from our CEO, I sought formal education and enrolled in an MBA program. There, I had a revelation: there’s no such thing as simply "transitioning to management." It’s a leadership transformation. First-time managers aren’t just taking on new tasks—they’re stepping into an entirely new way of thinking and operating. And this transformation requires dedicated support.
 

I was shocked by how little this reality was recognized in the industry.
 

Armed with this insight, I not only succeeded in my leadership journey but also began coaching and mentoring others—helping them become the leaders their teams truly deserve.
 

Today, I work to spare new managers and their leaders the unnecessary struggle. I coach them to move swiftly across the leadership transformation, embracing authentic leadership and creating the conditions for winning teams to thrive.
 

I also work directly with teams, helping them cultivate the relationships—both internal and external—that enable them to deliver increasing value, indefinitely.
