About me

Grew up in the NW

I grew up in the Pacific Northwest, where I spent much of my childhood riding horses through the woods, immersing myself in nature. Later I graduated from the University of Washington.

I have remained connected with family and friends. I genuinely love the weather here – if it hasn’t rained in a while, I get a bit twitchy!

Many journeys

Throughout my life, I have held a variety of roles, each one pointing me toward the same purpose: helping others. Whether in my career or volunteer work, I have driven to share my knowledge and experiences to help others navigate challenges more easily. I want to save others the heartache and frustration I experienced. 

As I read countless books and reflected on my own life, I realized all the tools I had developed to navigate the world. These tools were the very same tools that could help others. This realization led me to pursue the Martha Beck Wayfinder Life Coach training, where I gained skills to guide others in finding an easier, more fulfilling path.

The Martha Beck method resonated deeply with me. It focuses on what you *do* have – not what you are lacking. With this foundation, I focused my passion on ADHD coaching, combining my life coach training with my personal experience to help others.

I am fiercely driven and passionate about helping ADHDers understand their strengths and learn to thrive.

ADHD & Me

I have been married to ADHD for over 30 years. My journey with ADHD began when we discovered that our daughter, age 8, was struggling with ADHD challenges. After I researched ADHD extensively, it all started to make sense. Suddenly, the behaviors we had been grappling with now had a clear explanation.

When both of our children and my husband received their official diagnose, we made the decision to pursue medication. My husband called me after just one week and said “I am trying so hard not to be frustrated, but this has been the most productive week of my life! I wish I had known this years ago.” This moment marked a turning point, and I knew I had to continue learning all I could about ADHD.

I became a certified CCSP ADHD-informed coach, attended lectures and read everything I could get my hands on about ADHD. My passion is helping ADHDers understand their unique strengths and providing them with the tools they need to truly thrive.
