CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER, $12B PE-BACKED PORTFOLIO COMPANY
My Coaching Philosophy
I BELIEVE WE ARE WHOLE HUMANS—AND MY JOB ISN'T TO "FIX" YOU.
I'm here to challenge you to see yourself with curiosity, so you can lead with clarity, conviction, and deep self-trust.
People say my superpower is discernment. Intuition isn't a soft skill—it's a strategic advantage, refined over 30 years of performing at the highest levels.
The best leaders don’t fight the current—they find it, and it becomes a market multiplier. I help leaders recognize market tailwinds and build cultures that move with clarity and momentum.
My work blends strategy and values.
Metrics and meaning.
Performance and purpose.

The Purpose Value Creation Plan™
I integrate traditional Value Creation Plan principles with purpose-driven leadership development, creating self-aware, connected leaders who can reach their personal and organizational upside case.
-
Audit your life through the lens of your values—define them clearly, not just conceptually.
Gather 360 feedback about the gap between your intention and your impact.
Understand who you are behind the successes—not just behind the resume.
-
Learn to hear and trust the voice of your intuition—then act on it.
Create meaningful growth experiences at the edge of discomfort.
Build the courage to lead when clarity isn't guaranteed and certainty never shows up.
-
Build your personal board of directors—people who sharpen you, stretch you, and tell you the truth.
Protect your Return on Energy (ROE) by focusing on relationships and priorities that actually move the needle.
Invest where alignment accelerates outcomes—and stop managing what drains you.
-
Integrate purpose into performance so your results scale and sustain.
Build the brand of leader who changes markets—and lives.
Make your Legacy count.
"The upside case isn't just about enterprise value—
it's about reaching your full potential"

How Well Are You Executing Your Personal Value Creation Plan™?
How Do You impact Others' Lives?
LEADERS NEED TO THINK ABOUT THE LEGACY THEY'LL LEAVE IN THE WORLD.
As an executive leadership coach, I help my clients develop their Personal I.P.O.—an Integrated Purpose Offering.
Your Personal I.P.O. is the alignment of your inner values with your outer actions—so you can offer the world your highest self.

Why This Work Matters Now
12 million people work for pe-backed companies. That’s $4.4 trillion in assets under stewardship.
This isn’t just about enterprise value. It’s about human value.
When PE-backed leaders lead from purpose—not just performance—they create better returns, stronger companies, and more sustainable futures.
You've Done Everything Right—and Still Feel Something's Off
YOU’VE SCALED BUSINESSES AND HIT EVERY TARGET. BUT DEEP DOWN, SOMETHING’S OFF. IT’S NOT BURNOUT. IT’S DISCONNECTION.
You're Stretched Too Thin
You're respected, relied on, and responsible for massive enterprise value. But you feel pulled in too many directions. The higher your title, the less time you have to reflect on what actually matters.
You’re not burned out—you're disconnected.
Ready for What’s Next
You've got nothing left to prove—but everything left to become.
This isn’t about slowing down. It’s about reconnecting to purpose and leading with power, clarity, and returns.

Why This Work can’t wait
THE TIME FOR PURPOSE-DRIVEN LEADERSHIP IS NOW.
You've been sensing it. That whisper that more is possible. That you've outgrown the playbook. That something in you is asking: What if success could feel simpler AND more meaningful?
The leaders who align purpose with performance won't just survive the next decade of private equity—they'll define it.
I've Sat In Every Seat.
I get it.
As the ultimate PE insider, I speak languages fluently. I translate between worlds most people can only navigate one at a time.
I COACH WITH THE INSIGHT OF AN OPERATOR, THE CLARITY OF A STRATEGIST, AND THE COURAGE OF A THOUGHT PROVOCATEUR.
Because growth doesn't come from comfort. It comes from the right question, asked at the right time, by someone who's been there.
