Professional Background

"My experience is that a successful leader, or mentor or coach, is first and foremost a a teacher. Someone who has the experience you need and loves to share it with you. They can tell a story. They bring a positive attitude and a sense of humor. They remain calm when things start going south, and things always eventually go south; if they didn't, we wouldn't need leaders. They're there when you need them, and they hold you accountable."
