welcome!

I'M GLAD YOU'RE HERE.

Using a combination of principles, including strengths-based coaching and principles from positive psychology,  I partner with small businesses, recreation centers, and creative entrepreneurs around the Rochester, NY, and Finger Lakes regions to integrate my coaching curriculum into peace-filled retreat settings, professional conferences, and workshops. I enjoy facilitating workshops, teaching classes, hosting online webinars, and speaking at retreats or events.

I work with clients individually on a limited basis. If you're interested in working with me, please reach out! 

Why hire me?
   

  • I have over 13 years of career coaching experience.
     

  • I'm pursuing my Board Certified Coach (BCC) credential (expected 2023).
     

  • 100% of clients say their objectives for pursuing coaching were met 
     

  • 100% of clients would recommend Thrive Career Coaching to a friend.

One of the (many) things I've learned in this line of work is that people define "success" in a multitude of ways. My purpose in life is to help you find yours.

 

 

It's nice to meet you!

 

 My undergraduate degree is in creative writing and my master's degree is in human development & family studies (with a focus on college student personnel). Since graduate school, I've been working in higher education in career development and love, love, love (saying it once isn't enough!) what I do. I consider it my true joy & privilege to help students explore their interests, skills, passions, and values so they can create meaningful lives.
