About Us
Lessons in Life
My life in higher education and business has brought me to the high tables of global engagement, taught me how to envision the future, and help others to see and seize theirs. I am inspired now to work with young scholars in the US and China, to help small businesses thrive, and to nurture nobility in elders.

Coaching for Business and the Second Act
My coaching practice can help you become more successful in business, or in transitioning to a second part of life defined more by heart and spirit than by mind and logic. Both realms are open to explore.
