About Me

As a certified intentional life Coach and the founder of Living Intently, I help women live with intention so they can experience a life that’s abundant, grounded, and authentic, while also supporting leaders and organizations to intentionally thrive without burnout.​

This work is deeply personal to me. I grew up with a gap for a father and a deep hole around my worth. I’ve personally navigated tough resets like moving across continents alone, figuring out my identity, rebuilding after heartbreak, healing from an eating disorder, and being laid off due to organizational changes and toxic culture.

Through it all, I’ve learned how to respond to life with confidence, rather than reacting in fear. I know what it’s like to feel lost, insecure, and self-critical, and I also know what it’s like to live a life steady in faith, rich in self-respect, and full of love and healthy, feminine power.

With over a decade of experience in personal development, intentional living, and leadership growth, I bring a grounded, Christ-rooted approach to coaching. With a degree in Business Information Systems and years of coaching experience, I combine strategic, systems-minded thinking with personal growth expertise, helping leaders and teams turn insight into action. I’m passionate about helping women cultivate self-worth, confidence, resilience, and wholeness, and helping leaders and teams do the same in the corporate world throughout Texas and beyond.

Professional and life experience

I was born and raised in South Africa and faced deep personal challenges early on, losing my father as a baby and navigating a household shadowed by narcissistic behaviors. At 17, I moved to the U.S. alone, determined to chase my dreams, and earned a full scholarship to my dream school. I experienced heartbreak that reshaped my perspective, thrived in a high-pressure corporate world, and ultimately built my own coaching business, creating a space to give others the guidance, support, and empowerment I longed for throughout my journey. I haven't been more fulfilled, and it's my mission to help others experience fulfilment like I have.
