About Nancy
Leadership that honors the whole person
Executive coach, workshop leader, and collaboration facilitator who believes people deserve to be seen and taken seriously.
The Beginning
The daughter of teachers who made learning a way of life
As a kid, I was raised to ask questions, be curious, listen attentively and allow all voices to be heard. That belief—that people deserve to be seen and taken seriously—has become the throughline in how I work with leaders and teams.
Credentials & Experience:

30+ Years in Corporate Roles
“The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any.” — Alice Walker
The Journey
I’ve seen it all
Over 30 years in corporate roles at organizations like Disney, Mattel, Hasbro, and NBCUniversal, I became a keen observer of how organizations really function. I watched brilliant people edit themselves to fit in, meetings where the best ideas never made it out of someone's notebook, and cultures where a single leader could change everything—for better or worse.
Along the way, I was also championed by a few truly magical bosses who saw my potential, gave me room to experiment, and modeled what it looks like to lead with both high standards and deep humanity. Their example shaped my belief that the best leaders don't just manage performance; they expand what people believe is possible for themselves.
“We need to do a better job of putting ourselves higher on our own ‘to-do’ list.” — Michelle Obama
Success Reimagined
Purpose over perfection
All of that was tested and reshaped when I became a mom. Motherhood shifted my life and career in ways I never saw coming, forcing me to rethink success, renegotiate boundaries, and get very clear about what (and who) truly matters.
That perspective now lives in my work—I know the world doesn't pause for leadership development, so I make room for the whole human, not just the job title.
Today
Turning avoidance
into dialogue
Today, I'm an executive coach, workshop leader, and collaboration facilitator who loves turning "we should talk about this someday" topics into real, brave conversations.
My sessions are practical and interactive, with a mix of structure and humor, designed to help people communicate more clearly, build trust faster, and lead with more confidence, empathy, and intention—just like the leaders who once did that for me.

My promise to you
If we end up working together, my hope is simple: that you leave our conversations feeling more seen, more grounded, and more equipped to lead in a way that feels like you.
