Meet Kari

Hi, I’m Kari

The Wayfinder in Me

A common thread throughout my career and coaching practice is my ability to "connect the dots." By deeply listening to my clients—understanding their experiences and aspirations—I help them uncover new insights and perspectives. Awareness is the bridge to choice, and through our work together, my clients gain the clarity to release limiting beliefs, shift patterns, and disrupt systems, creating meaningful change in their lives and careers.

Career Highlights

After more than 20 years in client services, I pivoted to coaching in 2018, driven by a passion for transformative growth. My journey as coach began with a year-long certification program with the Co-Active Training Institute (CTI), where I connected with like-minded individuals committed to the power of coaching.

Since then, I have continued to build my practice, earning my Professional Certified Coach (PCC) credential with the International Coaching Federation. Coaching has allowed me to expand my impact beyond my previous leadership roles, helping leaders across diverse organizations unlock their potential and drive meaningful change.
