Every story has a transformative moment. For me, it started nearly 15 years ago during AmeriCorps VISTA service, running career readiness workshops for veterans. That’s where I found my passion for instruction—and learned that career change doesn’t have to feel overwhelming.

Throughout my career, I too have found myself questioning whether I could(or should!) leave behind roles I had outgrown, wondering if I was even capable of starting over. Nonetheless, I’ve made four major pivots:

U.S. Navy → Nonprofit → Civil Service → Government Contracting

With a foundation of training and facilitation certifications, coupled with my commitment to continuous growth, I ensure my coaching and instruction are always effective:

English essayist Samuel Johnson once wrote:
People need to be reminded more often than they need to be instructed. 

This resonates deeply with Act 3 Strategies, where I believe for those of us in the third act of life, the path forward is not about being told what to do; it’s about rediscovering who we’ve been and aligning those strengths with the vision of who we are becoming.

That’s not just for work—it’s how I plan my travel, life, and every coaching and training session.

Whether mapping a future or booking excursions, I believe in preparation, structure, and purpose.

I am even all packed 1 week prior to departure(a running joke amongst my friends). This way, when the big day arrives, all I have to do is grab my suitcase and go! 

The care I put into planning my travels mirrors the intentionality I bring to guiding clients through career transitions.
