A Path of Practice

Early Foundations
Playing music was my first creative practice, teaching me to listen deeply. My spiritual journey began with yoga in 1989, then deepened through Zen, Insight Meditation, and Aikido—learning that wisdom emerges through breath, body, and Presence.

Creativity as Practice
For fifteen years, photography was my primary interest—artistic expression, creative inquiry, and vocation. I learned how art opens us to mystery and joy. Through my own practice and through teaching others, I discovered that creativity comes through Presence. This remains central to how I work.

Professional Path
Throughout my career, I've been asking: How do we help people connect with what they need to learn, grow, and offer their deepest contribution?

I started as a librarian—a practice in listening and creating pathways to knowledge. Next was a decade of leading projects and facilitating teams at startups and agencies—helping people find flow and purpose.

Since 2018, I've coached teams and leaders at organizations from hypergrowth startups to Fortune 500 companies including Google. Again and again, I kept encountering the same truth: who we're being deeply informs what we're capable of doing.

Approach

This led me to an immersion in psychology, somatics, relationship systems, developmental coaching, and spiritual practice—a path that shapes how I support others in unveiling their wholeness.

After years of exploring, Aletheia Unfolding was the alchemy that opened into a deep sense of wholeness, joy, and contentment. Letting go of self-improvement and learning the view and method of unfolding changed everything.

Transformation happens in relationship—through Presence, attunement, and just enough skillful guidance. Coaching is where your streams of practice flow together. You can inhabit your uniqueness while resting in the vast ocean of Being.

What this means for you
Whether you're navigating a career transition, working through relationship challenges, deepening your practice, or exploring questions of meaning, this approach uncovers space for wisdom to emerge. We’ll sense when to play in a structured way and when to trust the unfolding.

Whether you’ve been practicing for years or are just beginning to explore inner work, I’ll meet you where you are. Experienced meditators often find their practice unfolds in fresh ways. Those new to contemplative work discover a sense of ease, joy, and possibility.
