Qualities I value in my colleagues

  • Honesty
  • empathy
  • curiosity
  • adaptability
  • openness

Empathy and Connection: I’ve learned that to really make an impact, you have to understand people at their core. I take the time to get to know each client and their unique challenges because that’s where real solutions begin. Listening isn’t just a part of my work; it’s a commitment to understanding and connecting with people in a meaningful way. ​Being Real and Honest: I show up as my true self, with no pretense or fluff. My clients know they’re getting someone who’s upfront and transparent, focused on finding solutions that actually work. I’m here to dig deep and get to the root of issues, not just put a Band-Aid on them. ​Adventure and Growth: I’m always looking for new challenges and opportunities to grow, both personally and professionally. For me, learning is what keeps life exciting, and I bring that same curiosity to my work. Every experience—whether it’s a new project or a tough hike—is a chance to push myself and grow.

My communication style

  • Open
  • curious
  • articulate
  • transparent
  • assertive

My approach starts with asking questions—lots of them. I believe that the only way to truly understand an issue is to dig deep and get to the heart of what’s really going on. Clients know me as someone who seeks clarity above all else because, once we have that, we can create solutions that actually address the root problem. Working with me means you’re getting a partner who’s all in, someone who’s as invested in your success as you are. I don’t believe in cookie-cutter answers because every client and every situation is unique. My goal is to create a path forward that fits who you are and where you want to go.

My pet peeves

  • Inauthenticity
  • ungratefulness
  • close-mindedness
  • wastefulness
  • micromanagement

Fun fact

I volunteer with search and rescue teams, so I’m always ready for an adventure and a challenge—even if it means hiking a mountain in the middle of the night!

Personal Q&A

  • What's the best professional advice you ever received?

    'Listen more than you speak.' True understanding—and often the best solutions—come from listening deeply to people’s needs, challenges, and perspectives before offering advice or taking action. It’s a reminder that empathy and clarity are powerful tools in any profession.

  • What part of your job gives you most energy?

    Clear View Advantage isn’t just a business to me—it’s a calling. I’ve always believed that meaningful work goes beyond hitting targets or streamlining processes; it’s about creating something lasting and impactful for the people at the heart of every organization. I know firsthand the difference that clarity, structure, and empathy can make, not just for a company’s bottom line but for the individuals who show up every day. When I work with clients, I’m not just looking to solve a problem; I’m helping create an environment where teams feel supported, understood, and empowered to do their best work. There’s something deeply fulfilling about guiding people and businesses to a place where they feel stable, capable, and equipped to grow. Each project is a chance to make a real difference, and I pour my heart and expertise into that mission. ​What drives me is knowing that, by building operations that work for people—not just processes—I’m helping to create workplaces where people can thrive and organizations can reach their fullest potential. It’s that combination of practicality and purpose that makes this work so rewarding for me. Clear View Advantage is my way of using the skills I’ve honed over the years to bring clarity, confidence, and genuine support to the businesses and individuals I work with.
