Experience in the area
I am a certified Life Coach through Coach Training Alliance which is recognized as one of the top ten coaching schools in the world. I feel that my rich background and life experiences give me a unique perspective on life. I offer all my clients a safe haven where they can be themselves and their ideas are always respected and honored. I have been coaching as a certified life coach for 1 year and I help support and motivate people as they tap into their courage and start a business by using their creativity whether they want a shop of their own or want to paint in Paris for the year! As an artist myself, I feel I understand the creative process and also the heart and soul of the artist. I am a published poet and was also a stand up comic who worked as a comedy writer for WNBC Radio. My coaching will help people realize that change is not to be feared, but embraced! I have 20 successful years in the creative and marketing departments of major NYC advertising agencies.
