She leverages tools like the Energy Leadership Index (ELI 360) to elevate team energy, unlock clarity, and drive meaningful engagement at every level. Her signature philosophy— “make a stranger a friend”—guides her mission to help teams and dentists lead with heart, communicate purposefully, and create practices where patients say yes not because they’re persuaded, but because they feel understood.
