I started Amplify Coaching for one simple reason: I believe that there are too many important voices being left out of conversations. For too long, our collective narrative has been created by a narrow slice of the population.
That needs to change.
I believe that everyone has a story, and it’s past time we amplify the voices of those so often left behind.
I will work with you to amplify your voice and get paid what you deserve. I collaborate with people to write and prepare for paid speaking engagements, TEDx talks, interviews, panels and other speaking gigs. I also support people in written works, such as blog posts, articles, Op-Eds, and more. I have a unique ability to take the rambling thoughts inside someone’s mind and turn it into a cohesive narrative. I can meet you wherever you are in the process and take you all the way home. My approach is collaborative and supportive. I see myself as someone who asks the right questions and helps your story emerge.
You have the story, I help you tell it.
Look, bios are hard. But here’s what you should know.
I live in a 100-year-old house in the Oak Cliff neighborhood of Dallas with my husband and three young kids. I spend most of my time doing random things to my house, like hand-painting polka dots in the bathroom, or re-arranging furniture for the hundredth time.
I am a native of Portland, and a graduate of Gonzaga University (go Zags!). I prefer Converse and a well-worn pair of jeans. I like to be outside. We like to take ambitious road trips with our kids.
Professionally, I have over a decade of experience in writing, copy editing, speech coaching and more. And in the areas where professional and personal overlap, I am deeply invested in the areas of education, mental health, racial equity and social justice.
