Empowering students through personalized coaching for lifelong academic and personal success
My Story
My passion for coaching comes from believing every student deserves more than simply surviving school.
Throughout my experience as a Clinical Assistant Professor in Pharmacy, Academic Coach, Student Professional Development Specialist, and Certified Christian Life Coach, I’ve seen students overcome obstacles, discover confidence, and achieve remarkable goals with the right guidance and support. I believe academic success and personal wellbeing are deeply connected. That’s why I use a whole-person coaching approach that nurtures growth academically, personally, professionally, and spiritually. My greatest joy is helping students realize their God-given potential while creating fulfilling lives filled with purpose, balance, and hope.
My Values & Goals
Whole Growth
I believe academic achievement becomes stronger when personal wellbeing, faith, confidence, relationships, and purpose grow together through intentional development and support.
Faith First
I encourage students to embrace faith, hope, and purpose while confidently pursuing academic excellence, meaningful relationships, and lifelong personal growth.
Purpose Driven
Every coaching relationship focuses on helping students discover meaningful direction, maximize strengths, achieve ambitious goals, and create lasting positive change.
My Approach
My coaching approach focuses on the whole person, recognizing that academic achievement, personal wellbeing, faith, relationships, and future success are deeply connected. Together, we’ll create personalized strategies, practical systems, and sustainable habits that reduce overwhelm, strengthen confidence, improve performance, and help you enjoy your educational journey while preparing for meaningful opportunities ahead.
