I’ve spent almost 30 years teaching, coaching, and advising Fortune 500 clients on strategic negotiation, leadership, collaboration, conflict resolution, and influence skills. I learned from, and worked alongside, thought leaders from the Harvard Program on Negotiation, CMPartners, Triad Consulting Group, and Vantage Partners. Over the years, I have served global clients in the manufacturing, banking, insurance, energy, and pharma sectors, among others. I have worked with thousands of individuals across organizations that include Microsoft, Intel, Morgan Stanley, Johnson & Johnson, General Mills, Deloitte & Touche, Chevron, Pixar, the World Health Organization, and the Federal Reserve.

I also teach leadership and conflict resolution at Tufts University.

In 2021, during a reset after a health crisis, I had a profound retreat experience that sparked my curiosity about a strange…intelligence… my body seemed to possess that my mind had never noticed. As the facilitator helped me listen in, I was able to cut through months of confusion and take decisive action.

That experience inspired me to study somatics at the Strozzi Institute, and — since horses are exquisite teachers of how to live an embodied, fully somatic life — obtain a certification in equine assisted learning from EAL Academy. I’m working toward a second certification in Equine Guided Education under the tutelage of Ariana Strozzi Mazzucchi.

I hold degrees from MIT and The Fletcher School at Tufts University, and live in a small town northwest of Boston, MA with my husband, two kids, and two dogs.
