Coaching & Consulting for Engineers, Managers, and Technical Leaders
Move beyond technical expertise—master the soft skills that drive real results for you, your team, and your business.
Technical skills get you started. But when it comes to leading teams, building a business, or moving up, it’s your people skills that set you apart. I help engineers, managers, and owners master the “human side” of success—so you can unlock your next level, no matter where you’re starting from.
I can relate.
For over twenty-five years, I played a supporting role in my own story—letting my career, my teams, and even my business take me wherever they would. It took a catalytic event, the right coach, and some serious honesty to finally step up and take charge.
Now, as an engineer turned coach, I understand the pressures and blind spots that hold back not just engineers, but also managers and business owners. Whether you’re building your career, leading a team, or running a business, I’ve walked that path—and I know what it takes to move from drifting to directing.
Having made that shift myself, I’m dedicated to helping technical professionals, managers, and owners take control of their work, their teams, and their future. Here’s how I can help you achieve your professional and personal best—on your terms.
Who I Help
Small Business Owners & Technical Leaders
You’re an owner, founder, or senior leader of an engineering firm or technical business. You built your business on technical excellence, but people challenges—especially with new generations or rapid growth—are holding you back.
How I Help:
Bridging generational gaps (especially with Gen Z)
Creating communication systems and team “infrastructure”
Balancing consulting and coaching for actionable results
Retaining and developing high-potential talent
Flexible engagement: consulting when you need answers, coaching for deeper growth
Workshops and team training for company-wide impact
Engineering Managers & Team Leads
You’re a new or struggling manager, or a team lead who needs to shift from “doer” to “leader.” Maybe you’ve been told to change—or else. You’re caught between upper management and your direct reports, and the technical work is the easy part; it’s the people stuff that’s tough.
How I Help:
Delegation, feedback, and conflict management
Leading diverse and multi-generational teams (including Gen Z)
Breaking out of micromanagement habits
Building team trust and psychological safety
Urgent “last chance” transformation for those at risk of demotion or termination
Coaching infrastructure: High-level session notes and alignment updates for sponsors/managers (with permission)
Blending coaching and consulting for actionable, immediate results
Engineers Ready for More
You’re an early- to mid-career engineer—civil, mechanical, electrical, or beyond—looking to move beyond technical roles into leadership or management. Maybe you want to proactively upskill before taking on more responsibility, or you’re tired of being overlooked for promotions because “soft skills” feel like a foreign language.
How I Help:
Build confidence in people-facing roles
Improve communication, influence, and emotional intelligence
Navigate team dynamics and “soft skill” blind spots
Prepare for promotions or “stretch” assignments
Leadership Readiness Audit to identify strengths and gaps
Flexible 3-session starter packs for those who want to “test the waters”
Career coaching for those proactively upskilling before management
Option for CliftonStrengths assessment to help identify and leverage natural talents
