As an executive coach and leadership developer, Liz builds on her extensive business and technical experience with training and accreditation in coaching. She is passionate about people and the good they can do in the world as they become the best leaders possible.

​
Liz approaches all of her services by putting people first and having some fun along the way. As a coach, she sees that work and life both impact each other and therefore the whole person should be addressed through coaching. As a leadership developer, she sees that unless those skills are applicable and relevant to the individual's success, they have a tough time being adopted.
