You Don’t Need a Crisis to Change Everything – You Just Need to Know How to Pivot

Through powerful stories and actionable tools, I teach people and teams how to pivot with urgency, resilience, and purpose – at work, in leadership, and in life.

Keynote Speaking

“Sharing personal stories, tools for mindset-shifts, and navigating change with courage and clarity.”

I wasn’t supposed to be here this long.

In 2019, I entered end life stage cystic fibrosis. My lungs were failing. My body was shutting down. Time was running out. Then, at the very last moment, a breakthrough drug was approved and it saved my life.
That moment split my life in two: before and after. Everything since then, I call them my bonus years.

But the truth is, I’ve always lived like time was running out. I was born with a terminal diagnosis, and raised with the knowledge that my future would be uncertain. That experience shaped how I make decisions, take risks, and lead myself through high-stakes moments, long before I had a title or a team.

On stage, on screen, or in the room.
