About Me
Feeling Stuck? Let’s Change That
You’re smart, capable, and driven—but something isn’t clicking. Maybe you’re a mid-career professional or executive at a crossroads, struggling to lead with confidence or make your next move. Maybe you’re an educator balancing passion, workload, and burnout, or a graduate student overwhelmed by deadlines and self-doubt as you push toward your goals.
You know you’re capable of more, but figuring out what’s next or how to get there feels overwhelming. You don’t need generic advice—you need a real conversation, a clear path forward, and a coach who gets it.
Coaching That Works—Because It’s Built for You
I don’t do one-size-fits-all coaching. Instead, I create a space where you can step back, get honest about what’s holding you back, and build a plan that works for you. Through presence-based coaching, I help you cut through the noise, build confidence, and take meaningful action.
We’ll use frameworks like Appreciative Inquiry, and Motivational Interviewing—not as rigid formulas, but as tools to unlock real insights. Our work together will help you:
✅ Clarify next steps with a strategy that fits your goals
✅ Strengthen decision-making and leadership presence
✅ Navigate challenges with resilience and purpose
Why Work With Me? Because I Get It
With over 25 years of experience in leadership, teaching, training, consulting, and mentoring, I’ve worked with executives, educators, and students navigating high-stakes decisions and career transitions. I hold a Ph.D. in Leadership and am a certified Motivational Interviewing Trainer. I’m also pursuing ICF coaching certification, blending academic expertise with results-driven coaching.
My background includes leading teams, consulting for organizations, and mentoring professionals. My coaching is grounded, structured, and designed for real people facing real challenges. You won’t leave sessions with vague ideas—you’ll have a clear plan and momentum.
If you’re ready to get unstuck; let's talk.
Reviews
Dr. Mark Manasse is a great career/life coach. He helped me work through a place of being stuck in which direction I'd like to pursue with respect to career issues. He's great at making you dig deep to figure out what is really important to you and point yourself in that direction. It's like the answers were there all along, but Mark knows how to ask the right questions- or better yet, helps you figure out what questions to ask yourself to get unstuck and gain clarity on YOUR life and priorities. I highly recommend working with Mark Manasse to help figure out a direction, shake off inaction, understand your WHY, and believe in yourself so you can achieve what you want. Mark's services are invaluable.
