  • Passion Punch Life Coaching

  • Life, Liberty and pursuit of PASSION! I LOVE to help people.. with a PASSION! With over ten years in the field of Human Resources, I have done extensive coaching and counseling in the business world both on a personal and professional level (leadership development, work/life balance, stress management, conflict resolution, etc). I have enjoyed helping my family and friends with resumes, interview skills, negotiating offers, career transition, and much more. Blend these skill sets together, add in a LOT of encouragement, goal setting, and accountability... and you have Life Coaching... a new perspective and clarity to move you forward to push through the barriers in your life so you can be, do, and achieve what you know, deep down, is who you want to be!
