You are an extraordinary leader.
Even the most effective leaders need a space to reflect, test ideas, and strategize.
Prioritize business results, and grow your leadership, people, and organization, with clarity and intention — through an insightful and judgment‑free partnership with Karen.
Like a drop creates ripples
across the water,
leaders'
actions have far-reaching effects.
I frequently come away from our executive coaching sessions feeling stronger and better able to face difficult conversations. Karen asks questions that invite me to consider other perspectives while also building confidence in how I’m going to approach a particular challenge. She has helped me to understand myself, what I want, and how I am most successful, to a depth that I had not previously understood. This enables me to confidently know what I need and to work towards and protect that.

Which challenges resonate with you?
I let daily tasks keep me from my strategic thinking and work
I don't feel comfortable disagreeing with others.
How do I get my boss and colleagues on board with my ideas?
Why is it so hard to communicate with some people?
I need to give feedback, but I'm concerned about the impact.
How can I set limits and push back?
I can't share my concerns with my team – they expect confidence and drive.
Shouldn't they know what to do by now?
How can I trust my decision-making more?
Senior leaders get the clarity and strategies they need with Karen...
I partner with senior leaders, founders, and their teams as an executive coach, facilitator, and consultant. Together we surface patterns, blind spots, and norms – that are shaping outcomes without their awareness.
My clients turn insights into actions:
- Leverage underutilized strengths and close capability gaps
- Increase team and organizational performance
- Develop people, manage change, and ease stress
- Prioritize strategic leadership and business results
My expertise is grounded in more than 25 years of working with senior leaders and their teams in global enterprises and high-growth startups. Along the way I…
- Served as an Internal Executive Coach to C-suite and senior leaders and led HR at a B2B and B2G internet startup
- Lived and worked in several countries – UK, Japan, Mexico, Brazil – developing a deep intercultural lens which informs my design and facilitation of leadership development and other programming
- Earned a Professional Certified Coach (ICF) credential, an M.A. in Intercultural Relations, and a B.A. in Communication
I have had the pleasure of knowing Karen for over a decade and working with her through Leadership workshops and 1:1 coaching conversations over the last couple of years. Karen is a true "coaches' coach". Karen is a very good listener and guide when you are trying to troubleshoot abstract and difficult leadership problems. Karen is also a fantastic facilitator and communicator in group settings. I would recommend Karen for any leadership training setting as a coach, consultant, or workshop lead.
