About Me

Before I became an Executive and personal development coach, I started as an athletics coach. I coached boys and girls soccer for 6+ years, and in that time, I learned a lot about various coaching styles and approaches. One of the main takeaways I learned in my coaching credential classes is that you can't perform tactically; what you can't do technically. In layman's terms, you can't perform well on the field if you don't grasp and understand the basic skills.

For 20+ years, I have worked on various IT teams as an individual contributor and in a leadership/management capacity. Before starting my stint coaching soccer, I worked with and led my teams in the same static and systematic way. During my 6+ years of coaching soccer, I worked in professional teams while simultaneously completing various athletic coaching training levels. As I applied my coaching knowledge to my players during practices and matches, I experienced a "lightbulb thought." What if I took the coaching skills I have used with my players and applied them to my team and co-workers in a professional business environment?

As I did while coaching soccer, I took on the challenge of earning my various professional coaching degrees and certifications. I was driven (and still am) by the notion that I would credibly coach and develop individuals and teams in the same coaching philosophy: you can't perform tactically; what you can't do technically.

Your discoveries will fuel your coaching engagement with me as you map out and execute the paths you create toward obtaining your goals. I will compassionately challenge you as you learn new tactics and skills to position yourself for success in your personal and professional lives.

At U90 Coaching, we lead with the mindset that there is no better feeling than stepping into a challenge and stunning others by doing what none of them thought you could.
