It was her sense of perspective that helped me most.

Working with Wendy was an incredibly valuable and enriching experience. While initially skeptical of my need for career transition coaching, her advice was smart and on-target. But it was her sense of perspective that helped me most. Her ability to reframe narratives and help me maintain a positive outlook through a process that wasn’t as easy or quick as I’d hoped it would be proved invaluable.

My Story

I empower executives with the tools and agility to thrive…

at every stage of their career journey.

wendy sitting in her office.

As an Executive Career Coach, I’ve had the privilege of guiding over 1,000 leaders on their journeys to success. My clients come from renowned companies like Disney, Amazon, Sony Entertainment, Airbnb, Salesforce, and PayPal—each bringing their unique story and vision.

My path to coaching wasn’t a straight line. After two decades in the film industry as a producer and executive, an unexpected career shift opened my eyes to the power of reinvention and new possibilities. This shift ignited a passion to empower others in finding fulfillment in their work.

Drawing from extensive experience coaching leaders across diverse roles and industries—from C-Suite executives to budding entrepreneurs—I’ve developed a proven toolkit for navigating today’s complex business landscape.

Recognized for my thought leadership, I’ve been featured on the Today Show and CNBC, contributed to Forbes and HuffPost, and have been highlighted in The New York Times and The Washington Post. As an adjunct faculty member at iPEC, one of the leading global training institutes, I’ve had the honor of mentoring up-and-coming coaches, working to elevate our field and expand its impact.

I’m inspired daily by the aspirations of my expansive roster of clients. Their ambitions, challenges, and triumphs continually affirm my belief in the transformative power of coaching.
