Drawing on more than 25 years of legal and leadership experience across the federal government and nonprofit sectors, I bring a unique blend of leadership, empathy, strategic collaboration and coaching. I have experienced career pivots big and small on my journey to becoming a leadership and career coach.

Over the course of my career, I have litigated high-impact cases at the U.S. Department of Justice and the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law on behalf of underrepresented communities to ensure voting rights and equity in higher education funding. I also advocated for equal opportunities in federal contracting for small businesses and secured 100 million dollars in recovery aid for small businesses in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. At the Environmental Protection Agency, I led an office through a presidential transition, guided teams in adapting to evolving policy priorities while ensuring high-quality legal counsel and effective client service. My EPA tenure also included advising senior leaders on longstanding environmental issues in underrepresented communities and environmental protection and meaningful engagement with Tribal Nations in Indian Country.

In addition to my work as an attorney, I developed and led initiatives to further equity and inclusion in the workplace. This experience deeply resonated with me, as I worked to facilitate growth, insight and transformation in others.

I recently had my own career pivot after retiring early from the federal government in 2025 and obtaining a Professional Certificate, Leadership Coaching for Organizational Performance, from the International Coaching Federation (ICF) Accredited Coaching Education Program at American University. Prior to that, I completed the Diversity and Inclusion certificate program at Cornell University. Outside of coaching, I enjoy reading, sampling new restaurants with my husband, going to movies and museums, and attending my kids’ baseball, basketball and soccer games. Originally from Jamaica, Washington DC has been my home for the last 28 years.
