About

Hi, my name is Mary and I'm looking forward to meeting you. Over the course of my 20+ year journey in software engineering, I evolved my own career from being an individual contributor to running entire departments as Vice President of Engineering.  I hit plenty of bumps along the way and experienced first hand how challenging it can be to excel in tech without sacrificing you personal well-being. I was lucky to have some great mentors and guides. which is what motivated me to gain addition skills in coaching so that I can help others break into, and advance through the tech space while still having the work/life balance needed to excel both personally and professionally.  I have worked directly with hundreds of developers, data scientists, product managers, and others techies looking for help with things like:

- Getting clarity on where to focus their career
- Developing leadership skills
- Cultivating work/life balance
- Mastering executive presence
- Transitioning jobs
- Becoming effective communicators
- Overcoming imposter syndrome

If any of that sounds familiar and you're ready to put in the work required for change, you've come to the right place. Through our conversations we’ll work together every step of the way to create a clear vision of your goals and to define actionable steps to get there.

What changes are you looking to make in your professional life?  What are some of the challenges you are facing? How can I help you meet and overcome those challenges? Let's connect and start re-defining what's possible.

Mary is an outstanding mentor. Her extensive experience informs her amazing empathy and advice. I reached out for mentorship when experiencing an issue with management at my company. For a couple months we talked about strategies and solutions I could use to resolve the issue. Thanks to her, the primary issue is resolved and, in addition, I received amazing career advice about other things as well. It was a pleasure to get to know Mary as another woman in tech because I didn't have to explain or footnote every thing I was explaining, she already understood! When I'm ready to come back for mentorship I hope she is available. Thank you so much, Mary!
