I am passionate about fostering mental health that helps teams perform under pressure.

I am driven to help people use performance psychology principles to improve their lives! After nearly 20 years as a sport and performance psychologist, I’ve learned that high performance is not only a set of tools but a way of being that we bring to everything we do.

Yet, in several high performing industries, we’re behind in taking action on mental health—and in some ways I get it because how we’ve talked about mental health in these spaces doesn’t consider important nuances of high performance.

Fortunately, the message I share is informed by two decades of experience within several demanding industries that also have high mental health stigma including healthcare, higher education, and collegiate and professional sport (including collision sports, such as football and ice hockey).

I’m also from a family of rural farmers, so my message is designed to reach even the most skeptical audience members! You can simply trust that what I have to say will reach the high performers on your team.

I’m a passionate and enthusiastic speaker (who might talk too fast at times) and am skilled at translating important concepts into practical strategies that you can immediately use. (You can thank my herding rescue dogs for helping me streamline my communication strategies!)

Pressure isn’t going away, so the way we deal with it must change!

My Approach

What began as as clinical work grew into a drive to help demanding industries create spaces, approaches, and relationships where everyone can perform at high levels and thrive!

What sets me apart from other speakers and trainers is I take time to understand, explore, and create with purpose at every turn because our relationship is what matters most.

Practical information

My work isn’t fluff—it’s actionable strategies that you can learn from, use, and implement right after my work with you

Lasting impact

I ensure everyone I work with walks away with something tangible, which includes feedback about my impact for event planners & leaders
