About Me

 I’m here to be a support but also to ask the hard questions – all in the goal to help you thrive in your creative life.  I offer one-on-one coaching online through zoom. 

I’ve made my career as a product designer for more than 20 years.   

Over the years, I’ve designed blue and white porcelain tableware for Bombay Company to custom furniture for celebrities. I’ve met designers and artists from almost every field and talked about their process – what inspires them and how they make their best work.   In those discussions, we talk about the nuts and bolts of their creative day-to-day. 

I also trained as a life coach. 

I know what it’s like to feel burned out creatively. I’ve been at the place where you have nothing to give. You feel spent, like a crusty piece of bread. But, slowly, I learned how to find a more even keeled approach to design and the creative process.   I learned how to align my core values and needs to how I live my life. 

My current work involves helping my clients figure out how to make sense of their busy lives, to get over creative hurdles and to process through emotionally challenging new work.  I help writers work through creative blocks and actors wrestle through character development. I help newly graduated art and design students stay focused on their creative journeys and established artists stay creatively fresh and focused. 

If you are interested in working with me, you can book a free 50 minute taster session because I feel that coaching needs to be experienced, not just read about. 

During the session,  we will spend 20-30 minutes tackling a specific issue you are having. Afterwards, I’ll circle back to see if you felt it was beneficial. And, if so, I can outline several options for how we might work together.
