We can work on ways to address those feelings as well so that you can feel happier and less burdened. Through an authentic and honest relationship, we will figure out your goals so that you can start to feel better.
Why work with me?
Quite simply, I love to help people of any age and can easily relate and understand the various challenges people are facing. There is nothing that gives me more joy than giving my clients a sense of empowerment, perspective and direction when they are feeling “lost or undirected.” I am a “people” person meaning that I have a relatability that allows me to connect easily with others Through active listening and deep conversations, I offer perspective and re-direction when clients feel “stuck.” In our coaching relationship, we will have direct and supportive weekly conversations in an effort to make you feel more purposeful and fulfilled and accountable. If you are in transition mode, we can explore ways to make you feel more settled and figure out your next steps.
In addition to being a Personal Development Life Coach, I am also the co-founder of MT Nesters which is a platform for women in transition. Through podcasts or live panels, MT Nesters interviews guests who are experts in relevant fields (i.e. retirement, financial management, beauty, marriage, health, nutrition and parenting) or empty nesters with inspiring stories about pivoting or entrepreneurship. Because I wholeheartedly believe in giving back to the community, I also helped launch a non-profit organization called Stand Up! Girls which brings stand-up comedy classes to underserved teen girls residing in the five boroughs of New York. I am the Executive Director of Stand Up! Girls and am responsible for the management of all programs.
I am a proud mother of three kids who were born and raised in NYC. I have learned about the challenges of raising happy, healthy, well adjusted children. I have coached on many parenting issues and can help you improve your parent-child dynamic through all stages of development. I also work with Millenials who have “failed to launch” and help them with this transition.
I have a BSE from the University of Pennsylvania and an MBA from New York University. Until the birth of my 3 children, I had a flourishing career in marketing. Though I was successful in my traditional career, my true passion lies in coaching and helping people. My coaching education is through Mentor Coach which offers an accredited coaching program. I am also ACC coach with the International Coaching Federation, the gold standard of all coaching accreditations.
In order to see if we are a good “fit”, I offer a free 30 minute consultation session where we discuss your coaching goals. Coaching sessions thereafter are approximately 60 minutes and can be done in person, over the telephone, or through FaceTime or Zoom.

As your coach, I have privileged access to your dreams, desires, fears, and struggles. It only seems fair you learn a little more about me.
I'm proud to call New York City home.
I live in New York City, in a beautiful neighborhood on the Upper East Side
I grew up on the suburbs of Long Island. When it was time to go to college, I couldn’t get away fast enough, so I packed up and headed off to University of Pennsylvania, in Philadelphia, Pennsyylvania. It was an eye-opening experience for a girl who hadn't really experienced urban living. It ended up being one of the most transformational experiences of my life. My business education started the foundation for my future as an entrepreneur and coach. Plus, I treasure the life-long friendships started there.
After I graduated, I didn't consider living anywhere else but New York City. I love everything about city living and am a major enthusiast for the great restaurant scene, the arts culture, and the amazing shopping.
I married my college boyfriend and have been married for 29 years!
I am lucky to have met the man of my dreams in college and we have been blessed with three amazing children, ages 25,23, and 21. I've learned a lot about parenting by raising my own kids and being super involved in their lives. Though parenting can be challenging at times, this has been the greatest joy of my life.
The death of my parents gave me a new perspective on life.
While I was deep in grief, I never thought I could smile again or have the life I wanted. Through a long journey, I learned how important your mindset is to creating the life you want. It took a lot of work to get where I am but it was worth it. I now look at life through the lens of positivity and I am alway trying to find the good in things, even if it is a difficult situation. Through my own challenges, I have learned how to be resilient and to cope and can offer insights on how to do this. While there were times when I just wanted to give up, I cut myself some slack, took a break and reemerged stronger with a better outlook on life.
One of the most strange things I’ve experienced through all of this, is that it has improved my coaching. I’ve always had pretty good focus and an ability to see patterns in people’s lives and behaviors, but now, it’s even more clear and intense. Learning to trust these intensified abilities and flashes of insight has helped my coaching immensely.
I'm a voracious reader, love tennis, and try to exercise every day.
I love all kinds of books and often read a few books at the same time. I love historical fiction, classics, and autobiographies. I am also an avid tennis player and am always working on improving my game. When I am not playing tennis, I enjoy walks with friends, running, yoga, and there is nothing like a great spin class!
My friends mean the world to me.
I have always have been blessed with alot of friends and enjoy socializing with all different kinds of people. I am non-judgemental and see the good in people. My girlfriends sustain me and I am so appreciative for all of the wonderful friendships that I currently have. My friends are like family to me and I work hard to maintain these close relationships.
