MY SUPER POWERS

20190823_South_Sister_142_edited.png

We are all born into this world with special gifts that take time to sharpen and focus.  When the right energy is applied to developing these gifts, you often are able to excel beyond others' expectations with minimal effort and a high degree of enthusiasm and joy.  It has taken me over three decades to identify and accept my Super Powers, and now that I have, I'm better positioned to support others while also feeling more fulfilled and joyful.  These are my transferrable skills that set me apart and give me energy.

01

INTERPERSONAL INTELLIGENCE

My social nature has always been sensitive to what other peoples moods, feelings and motives are.  As a result, I find many people naturally gravitate towards my leadership style as I am able to manage relationships, negotiate conflict and able to better understand situations.  This intuition has also enabled me to embrace service-oriented roles where I am able to create a positive and lasting impression to my customers.

02

GRIT & GROWTH

As an athlete, I learned early in life that effort was my path to mastery.  I was not always the best player on the team and had to work hard to earn my starting lineup position.  This persistence has followed me through my career.  I embrace challenges, learn from criticism and seek lessons and inspiration in the success of others.  This healthy dose of grit and growth mindset is what drives me to achieve my short and long term goals.

03

VISUAL STRATEGY

I love the challenge of learning new ways to creatively express and simplify ideas and data.  From dashboards to power points, videos and newsletters, I've built a reputation for bringing a unique perspective to problem solving and strategic planning.  My approach is rooted in logic with intuition to drive the message visually.  This Super Power has allowed me to lead high performing teams who understand the vision and how we will get to the future.
