It's easy to forget that our story is always yet to be written and re-written, learned and unlearned. I partner with leaders who have the curiosity and the courage to remember how.

I am an executive and mental fitness coach, certified by the International Coaching Federation and the Hudson Institute of Coaching, with additional training in Positive Intelligence, Voice Dialogue coaching, somatic coaching, and CRM (from the Trauma Resource Institute).

My perspective is informed by more than 15 years of experience working with clients around the world at the intersection of strategy, thought leadership, and executive development—all in the service of individual and organizational growth. I was a founding member of Deloitte’s Chief Executive Program, which aims to facilitate the success of CEOs throughout their career lifecycle. As its research director, my published work included a series of articles on the attributes of the “undisruptable CEO," “The health-savvy CEO,” and the Fortune-Deloitte CEO Survey.

Prior to joining Deloitte, I was affiliated with the leadership and organization practice at the Monitor Group, which Deloitte acquired. There, I designed and delivered highly customized leadership development programs and learning experiences that have served more than 3,000 executives across four continents. I also partnered extensively with Monitor’s network of thought leaders and faculty, led knowledge management for their leadership and organization practice, and co-authored Monitor’s approaches to capabilities transformation, globalizing work, and the power of stories.

I am a second-generation Asian-American. A classic introvert and HSP (highly sensitive person), I see profound beauty in our imperfect humanity, in our striving, and in our stories.
