In the midst of full-time work, leading a nonprofit, and raising a family, Renee started to wonder, what’s next? After many years of searching, she likes to say that “coaching found her.” She felt called to transformational leadership work, dove in head first, and never looked back.

What motivates her to do this work? It’s a combination of things.

Her belief that if we take our inner work seriously to become the best version of ourselves, both professionally and personally, we will not only lift up ourselves but also those around us, influencing generations to come.

Her experience at a Jesuit college, which teaches to the mind, heart, and hands of a student so they can go out into the world in service of others.

Renee is an Associate Certified Coach by the International Coaching Federation, a certified executive coach, and a certified trauma-informed consultant and coach. She is also a pro bono executive coach with Grounded Idealist.

Renee holds a B.A. in International Language Business from the University of Scranton.

As a Fulbright scholar, she conducted research and studied environmental business at the University of Freiburg, in Germany.

This experience played a key role for her as a co-founder of Lexington Zero Waste Collaborative, a local nonprofit in Massachusetts. During her six-year tenure as co-president, she helped build the organization from the ground up, developed strategic planning, and implemented programming.

Professionally, Renee worked with SAP for over twenty-five years, where she started as a technical writer, went on to lead a global team of writers, was recognized as a top performer, and worked as a consultant. In Global Marketing, she worked in naming, brand strategy, and was a "voice of the brand" for this 110,000+ employee company.
