After completing my MA, where I worked as a Graduate Fellow teaching Communication 101 for Idaho State University, I began working at the Idaho National Laboratory.

It didn’t take long for me to realize that the people I worked with had amazing potential, but often lacked the communication skills to help their work progress. I started offering Lunch and Learn Workshops where coworkers could come and learn communications skills once a week. This quickly grew into a lab-wide professional development.

Considerations for my growing little family led me to a career in education, where I put my passion for teaching conflict management, communication, speech, and argumentation to use helping our youth recognize that their voices matter.

With my family grown, I have returned full-time to coaching, training, and helping leaders level up their lives!
