Coaching
I work with people who are capable and still stuck. Too many threads and none of them moving, a career decision that keeps getting put off, or a meditation practice that hasn't yet changed how the rest of the day goes.
What we work on
- Executive function. Getting from intention to done without heroic effort, using systems that fit how your mind works, including ADHD and other neurodivergent minds.
- Career moves. Promotions, job searches, pivots and interviews. I ran more than 200 technical interviews as an AWS Bar Raiser and truly enjoy helping people learn to perform well in interviews.
- Practice in daily life. Carrying what you learn on the cushion or on retreat into work, relationships and hard weeks.
- Leading under pressure. Staying clear when the stakes and the workload rise together.
How I work
I spent almost nine years at Amazon Web Services in security engineering, first as an engineer and later managing security engineers, many of them people whose minds worked differently from the org chart's assumptions. I draw on Motivational Interviewing, Internal Family Systems and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, and on my own practice in the Theravada and Vajrayana traditions.
Sessions are practical. We find what's actually in the way, try something small, and look at what happened.
