  • Location: Alexandria, VA
  • Occupation: Career and Life Coach
  • My Passions: Cooking and entertaining for friends and family, hiking and communing with my husband, chatting and pontificating with my girlfriends, tinkering around the house, and watching my cat nest in warm, clean laundry!
  • About My Inner Philanthropist (why I give): I give to create a deeper sense of connection with what is happening in the world around me. I give because I want to reinvest a portion of my coaching profits to causes that move me. I give because I believe every little bit makes a difference!
