Hi, I’m Annette.
When I am not coaching or consulting with my clients, you can find me by the ocean with my two dogs, Dexter & Rosie. My husband, Kit, and I live on the central coast of California in Monterey. I spent my childhood in Southern California but really felt like I had found my happy place when we moved to the Monterey Bay.
I have a passion for travel and I am a homebody - I’ll jump on a plane to anywhere in the world and I’m always excited to get home!
I wake up at 5:00 a.m. every morning to journal, read something inspirational, and take time for quiet contemplation. On the weekends I enjoy being creative in my shed, cooking and baking, reading, and watching true crime and reality TV (my guilty pleasures!).
Professionally, I have over 25 years of executive leadership experience in the aerospace & defense, technology, and healthcare sectors. I have spent my career honing expertise in executive development, succession planning, team effectiveness, change leadership, and organization development. I have a Master of Organization Development from Pepperdine University. I am an ICF-Accredited Executive Coach and gained my certification as a CPCC from Co-Active Training Institute.
My passion is to bring my expertise and experience forward to support individuals as they navigate challenging environments personally and professionally.
My Approach
The foundation of my coaching is the belief that every person is naturally creative, resourceful and whole.
My job is to help you uncover the wisdom that you already possess and leverage that wisdom to achieve your most powerful outcomes. Coaching is my passion because I’ve experienced transformation first hand, as a client myself, and witnessed the magic through coaching others. It is my absolute honor to hold the space for another human being to explore and discover the path to living and working in greater alignment with their values.
