My background

My coaching, facilitation and teaching philosophy, style and skill draws extensively from my professional experience as an oncology nurse, a manager, a counselor, a management/leadership development consultant, a corporate leadership and communication coach and, most recently, as an independent consultant, yoga teacher and yoga therapy practitioner.

My industry experience includes 20 years in healthcare, much of that time with Presbyterian St. Luke’s Medical Center, and 11 years in finance/mutual funds with Janus Capital Group. Both are located in Denver, Colorado. I held several different positions at each of those companies during those time periods.

My traditional education includes a Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology from Lesley College in Cambridge, Massachusetts, an Oncology Nurse Practitioner certificate from the University of Alabama-Birmingham and an undergraduate degree in Nursing from Southern Colorado State College in Pueblo, Colorado (now Colorado State University – Pueblo). I also have participated in a wide number and variety of certificate programs and courses throughout my career. Here is a brief list of those I consider significant and relevant to my current work. A more in-depth list appears within the specific topical areas – Awareness Practices, Conscious Conversations, Meaningful Transitions.

I founded Another Possibility in 2004 with the intent of integrating and synthesizing my personal and professional experiences to create unique ways to offer my expertise in service to others.

In addition to my work with Another Possibility, I currently volunteer with two local non-profit organizations, Namaste Comfort Care, which provides hospice services, and Project Angel Heart, which prepares and delivers meals to people with life-threatening illnesses. I also volunteer at the Boulder County Jail teaching yoga to female inmates.
