Sacbe Guides

I have worked in Human Resources / Organizational Development my whole career, with a few years dedicated to teaching Management skills at Colorado State University. I am currently a Director of HR for a worldwide sales, services, and marketing group and work across the Americas, Europe, and Asia.

My Leadership style is about excellence, collaboration, innovation, and having fun in the process. I bring energy and enthusiasm to every project and my best days are when I have helped a leader solve their toughest problem.

I value community – being a part of and creating community whether it is my book group, a hiking group or the sales leaders that I would with every day.

Outside of work I enjoy travel, hiking, and being creative with fiber arts. I am always looking for a new, different place to go. In 2013 our family started a new tradition of hiking one of the top 10 hikes each year and so far we have hiked Half Dome and the Narrows. This year we are headed to Moab in October.

I look forward to creating new communities through the Sacbe Way.

I entered the healthcare field as a Registered Nurse over 25 years ago. In the beginning of my career, I loved taking care of patients. Then as I grew in experience I moved on to management and leadership positions, most recently as the Executive Director of Mount Evans Home Health Care & Hospice in Evergreen, Colorado, where I am lucky enough to call home.

My experience in the workplace provided great insight for me regarding what people want most and what holds them back.

Now in The Wisdom Shift, my consulting and coaching practice, I’m using my accumulated skills and wisdom to support others on their leadership and life journeys.

By becoming certified in The Sacbe Way™ I’m now able to add another dimension of service to my clients. This proven process of managing and building on life’s relentless changes provides the support and structure that is needed to move on in life in a positive and proactive way.

On a personal note, I am lucky enough to call Evergreen, CO my home, that I share with my husband Mark and our 2 dogs. Our 3 sons are grown and making their way in the world on their own now. We’re missing day to day life with them, yet enjoying the solitude of the empty nest

As Vice President of Human Resources for a worldwide software company I coach and help build the professional and personal the strengths of our people. I am a seasoned HR executive and team builder, having worked most of my career in this field, in a wide variety of industries. I have a warm presence that brings calmness to a room or a situation. This creates an atmosphere of exploration, collaboration, opportunity, and openness without judgment.

I have been a long- term member of the Larimer County Sheriff’s team victim response unit, helping those in our community through crisis situations.

I enjoy being with family, friends and the wonderful Colorado outdoors. I live my life as fully as I can while being present in the now and planning for the future, which can be challenging at times!
