Professional Experience

Bio

My name is Shelly, and I've helped create spaces that generate collaborative thinking, encourage individual dignity, and value awareness of shared intersectional connections for over 20 years. I became certified by the UC Davis Professional Coaching for Life and Work program in 2023 to continue that journey. I strive to find ways to continue my learning, be creative, and grow through writing, music, games, photography, movement and walking my dog.

I want to offer my support as you find your way through challenging projects, be a thought partner around your goals, and bring in my experienced viewpoint, giving voice to an intersectional perspective you may not be able to see when trying to create forward motion in your life. Are you ready to become wiser, more unrestrained, autonomous, creative, and, in turn, prepared to serve yourself truly?
