About Me
I am an executive coach, business writer, author, and speaker.
I began my adult life as a classically-trained stage actor, and taught theater, and voice & speech at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, the Michael Chekhov Studio, the Actors’ and Directors’ Lab, and the University of New Orleans. My experience as an actor helped me to develop the innate sensitivity to subtle cues of gesture, voice, and facial expression that I use in coaching executives.
My strengths lie in my ability to understand the very unique challenges that each of my individual clients is facing, and develop personalized strategies specific to the presenter, their subject matter, and their target audience. I do this by taking the time to understand your audience, event, goals, and most importantly—you and your message.
I write a weekly column for Inc.com, and have been published in BusinessWeek, and C2M (Consulting to Management). My newest book, The Essentials of Public Speaking, was published in 2014 by W.W. Norton.

[testimonial]I have downloaded 8 themes from themeforest. This has been the easiest to customize out of them all. I’ve never turned a website around so fast! I’ll be looking for more themes from TrueThemes in the future. Thanks![client_name]TrueThemes Customer[/client_name][/testimonial]
[testimonial]I have purchased the Karma Theme and can completely recommend it. The training videos are wonderful, very clear and concise with detailed instructions and demonstration. The Technical Support has also been wonderful, the response time on a issue I had was phenomenal, plus the solution to my issue was provided in a very clear manner. I will be using Karma on my next project as well.[client_name]Janet[/client_name][/testimonial]
