Meet Your Coach: A Journey from Pharmacy to Photography to Empowerment


 

Welcome! I am an ADHD Life and Executive Coach dedicated to guiding individuals through the complexities of managing both personal and professional lives with ADHD. My journey, rooted in diverse professional experiences and personal challenges, has equipped me with a unique understanding and empathy towards those facing similar paths.

A Rich Tapestry of Experience

My professional life began after earning a Doctor of Pharmacy degree from the University of the Pacific. Following a year of clinical residency, I embarked on a fulfilling 25-year career in pharmacy, working across various settings including hospitals, detox and rehab inpatient units, a county jail, and as a home infusion pharmacist. My career trajectory took me from hands-on clinical roles to becoming a Regional Manager for a national corporation, and eventually, an entrepreneur when I launched my own home infusion company in 2003. By surrounding myself with dedicated professionals, we overcame significant challenges, growing the business into a seven-figure success before I sold it in 2010.

Transitioning to Photography: A Test of Resilience and Discovery

Post-acquisition, as my pharmacy career concluded, I pursued my passion for photography. This venture not only fulfilled a personal dream but also presented a new set of challenges. Without the structure of a traditional workplace, my ADHD traits became more pronounced, affecting my productivity and efficiency. Yet, it was through these trials that I discovered the power of support systems, including group, individual, and business coaching.

A Commitment to Coaching

Inspired by the transformative power of coaching, I decided to focus on helping others navigate their lives and careers, especially those affected by ADHD. My experiences teaching photography at a local high school during the pandemic, and witnessing the struggles of students with ADHD, deepened my resolve to make a difference. In 2023, I earned my Advanced Certification in ADHD Life Coaching (A-CALC), marking a formal commitment to empowering individuals facing similar obstacles.

Partnering for Success

Today, as a Life and Executive Coach, I leverage my diverse background and personal experiences to support you in overcoming barriers and achieving your dreams. Whether you’re navigating the challenges of ADHD or seeking to enhance your life and career, I am here to partner with you. Together, we’ll work towards bridging the gap between where you are and where you aspire to be, ensuring a journey filled with growth, understanding, and success.

Let’s embark on this transformative journey together, towards the life you long for.
