Over 16 years and thousands of coach conversations, I've mapped the emerging patterns — what creates productive momentum, what stalls it, and what's often invisible from the inside.

This fieldwork is now a research-based compendium — a clear map, rapidly applied — built from real client work, real mess-ups, and real results. 

I've been in the room for most of it.

Coach. Strategist. Intuitive. I go deep fast and light — so you shape your strengths and temperament toward outcomes worth having.

I've rolled up my sleeves at IDEO, Pixar, Autodesk & Stanford University -and with start-ups like Strong Brew, Oru Kayak & Kreatives and individuals -guiding momentum that went somewhere specific and visible. Cultures shifted. Teams unstuck. Conversations turned generative.

Aligned with your values and calling.

Some days you can find me teaching in the MBA & Masters Interaction Design programs at California Collage of the Arts. I also served as advisor to The Making Learning Visible Institute at Harvard & the U.S. Department of Defense on feedback-driven learning systems.
