Real-world coaching for people building teams, products, and careers.
I’m good at the people and the product stuff. Over the last twenty years, I’ve built products and teams, supported countless career transitioners (being one myself), led manager mentor circles, coached moms returning to work as well as aspiring and new managers, as well as leaders in organizations, looking to maximize their impact. I have been a manager at a mega-corp as well as a leader at a late-stage start-up and have written countless articles about my learnings over the years. I'm an ICF-certified coach (ACC) and iEQ9-certified Enneagram practitioner.
Looking for a thought partner, coach, or advisor? I’d be honored to support your next chapter.

Helen is an exceptional coach who guided me through a transformative journey of growth. She creates a space that is easy to open up in, helping me uncover valuable insights from my own experiences. Her approach has deeply influenced both my career and personal life.
Kirby T., Operations Leader, Guild
“As I prepared to return to work after maternity leave, I was anxious about how I would manage my old role at work and my new role as a mom. Helen led with care, compassion, and curiosity to help me to set realistic goals, identify important strengths, and navigate challenges. She encouraged me to dig deep to uncover the “why” behind my feelings and actions and supported me through both exciting and uncomfortable realizations. Now that I’m back at work, I feel a sense of confidence and accomplishment in both my personal and professional life that Helen played a large role in.”
Angel V., Marketing Leader
Helen’s career coaching session was a game-changer. I wasn’t sure I needed it, but it turned out to be exactly what I needed—realigning my ideas, sharpening my focus, and turning uncertainty into opportunity. Her guidance helped me see the next few months not just as job-search time, but as a chance to explore new paths and invest in my future. The conversation was insightful, engaging, and truly time well spent. If you're navigating career transitions, I highly recommend working with Helen.
