Welcome to Illuminate-LLC Consulting Services

My mission as an independent consultant is to use my skills gained over 25 years in the international affairs arena to prepare the next generation for the future.  As a former senior executive for the U.S. Government and a certified executive coach, I mentor and coach people at all levels to help them reach their goals and live a productive life that is authentic, fulfilling, and aligned with their values. I believe that everyone has the potential to create positive change in their lives, and in this world. 

My approach to coaching is rooted in positive psychology, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral therapy. I work collaboratively with my clients to help them identify their strengths, overcome limiting beliefs, and develop practical strategies for achieving their goals. I believe that coaching is a process of self-discovery, and I am committed to providing a supportive and non-judgmental space for my clients to explore their inner self and be able to choose wisely based on their values and beliefs.

My approach to teaching is similar, in that I meet students where they are and quickly adapt their learning needs.  Passionate on the subject of international affairs, I make history and the world stage interesting to all by using story-telling and enthusiasm to spur meaningful interactions and content assimilation.

MENTOR-COACHING: I offer a range of consulting services, including one-on-one executive level coaching, mentor-coaching sessions, and group coaching.  My areas of expertise include U.S. Government career coaching, executive management of personnel and programs, relationship coaching, and personal development.

INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS PROFESSOR: I also offer adjunct international affairs courses, workshops, and guest speaking engagements.  I use real world examples from 25 years experience in the U.S. Government sector working a variety of issues.
