My Story
​ From School Leadership to Executive Coaching
For over 34 years, I've served as a leader in education, as a teacher, a school counselor, and as an assistant principal. I learned how to identify potential, drive professional development, and navigate complex interpersonal dynamics. These skills are the essential building blocks of effective leaders and productive teams across all industries.
My Experience
My extensive experience in educational leadership translates directly into helping professionals and executives drive change and foster a positive workplace culture. My years as a school counselor taught me how to provide one-on-one coaching to help individuals build self-awareness and resilience. My expertise in Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) is the foundation of my work in emotional intelligence, a skill proven to enhance decision-making, collaboration, and professional growth. I now apply this unique blend of experience to my coaching practice, helping professionals and executives master the human skills that are often overlooked but are critical to success. I'm not just a coach; I'm a veteran professional who has a proven track record of developing people and fostering environments where they can thrive.

Why My Practice Evolved
What's Next Solutions initially focused on empowering women navigating midlife transitions. But as I began working with clients, I noticed a pattern emerged. I saw many phenomenal professionals considering leaving the careers they once loved simply because they no longer felt inspired to excel. They needed a deeper connection to their work and their potential.
As a result, my practice has proudly evolved to serve professionals and executives of all genders. I now partner with them to build stronger relationships, create truly productive teams, make more informed decisions, reduce stress, enhance their resilience, and ultimately step into the professionals and leaders they were always meant to be.
