corporate citizenship with career experience spanning entry-level to senior management at organizations ranging in scale from startup to Fortune 50. 

His expertise focused on the applied psychology of design.  He now applies his skills to help you design your life with intent.

Michael has worked with many clients in all phases of life seeking change or adjustment in their lives.  Previously a professor and executive he brings deep and broad experience to his practice.  He is focused, empathic, experienced and thrives on helping his clients realize their native potential.

Beyond traditional career coaching, Michael also focuses on the unique needs of those facing mid-life stressors that seem to catch us off guard at a point in life when we expect life’s pressures to ease.  Challenges unique to mid-life include navigating the needs of aging parents, of children reaching adulthood as well as adjusting to the reminders of our own mortality.
