MORE ABOUT
ME

My professional journey began with a pivotal moment at the age of 16 when my parents and I migrated from Honduras to the United States. Settling in New York offered a great opportunity. Having witnessed the struggles experienced by many in my country, particularly women, I felt a deep sense of duty to seize this opportunity and make the most of it.

​

Diligently hitting the books, I earned acceptance to SUNY Binghamton, achieving a bachelor's degree in business management with a minor in marketing in just three years. Though business wasn't my first choice—journalism or professional writing was—I now appreciate my mom's wisdom in guiding me towards a degree that would empower me financially and prepare me for success in a world where challenges for Latinas were real. 

​

Post-university, a 20+ year career in corporate America unfolded, with leadership roles at Citigroup, PricewaterhouseCoopers, and Morgan Stanley. The journey wasn't without its challenges—I encountered "broken rungs" while ascending the corporate ladder.  To address this, I participated in leadership development programs aimed at enhancing my skills, broadening my network, and pushing me out of my comfort zone. By working with mentors and advisors. I acquired useful tools and strategies to reach my goals. 

 

While I learned to adapt, upskill, and navigate change to grow a successful career, something always felt missing.

​

It wasn’t until I pushed myself out of my comfort zone and embarked on a journey of self-awareness, including working with coaches, that I not only gained valuable insights into my fears, limiting beliefs and behaviors, but also what truly ignited my passion, purpose, and energy: coaching others.

​

When I coached people to think strategically about their future, set & achieve purposeful career goals, and overcome obstacles, were the times I felt most alive and fulfilled. Seeing the transformation in those I partnered with became my greatest reward and fuels my commitment to making a meaningful difference.

​

I honed my coaching skills and deepened my understanding of transformative coaching practices through the mentorship of seasoned business coaches and getting certified by the Worldwide Association of Business Coaches (WABC).

​

In November 2023, I made the bold decision to leave corporate America, fueled by a sense of purpose and a desire to effect positive change in as many lives as possible. This move signifies the culmination of a journey shaped by challenges, learnings, and an unwavering commitment to making a meaningful impact. This is just the beginning!

 

My mission is clear — to empower leaders to navigate their complex environments confidently and strategically, enabling them to overcome obstacles and achieve their fullest potential.
