About me

“Nona is one of those rare coaches who always has the ideas, the answers, and the insight to guide you home. Whenever I am coached by her, I feel supported and challenged, safe and inspired. Go to Nona when you’re ready for the truly extraordinary combination to propel you right into your best life.” —Briana Aldrich, coach & bliss advocate

I have a long-ish list of adjectives that describe me: I am certified business and life designer, writer, speaker, teacher, mom, CPA, Air Force wife, and yogini.  These roles have brought both great lessons and enormous joy to my life, and, they make me really great at what I do.

My special superpower is that of a mindful, solutions-focused, coach & mentor. For you, that means creative, unique solutions and strategies for your business and your life; compassionate, intuitive, coaching to get past fears and limits; and solid solutions and plans to get the job done.  I’m not afraid to get in and do some work if some part of your system just isn’t working right.

People who work with me get clarity, create momentum, and have fun doing it.

After ten years of corporate accounting and working for publicly traded companies in financial management, I left the workforce to get married, have children, and pursue work that was more meaningful and satisfying to me. As a long-time yogini and meditator, I became a certified yoga and meditation instructor to help people reduce stress, improve the quality of their lives, and stay connected to their natural inner resources of wisdom. Quite naturally, I found that I was coaching my students and decided to pursue certification with Dr. Martha Beck, best known as Oprah’s life coach.

Now, I get ridiculously excited about helping women who are overwhelmed  put into practice, flexible, personalized, solutions so they can flourish.

I believe that developing our natural ability for calm focus is essential to flourish and creating lasting change in our lives – which is what leads to success. Through the process of working with coaches myself, and the practices of yoga and meditation, I have, and continue to, experience the power of wabi sabi in my own life and maintain lots of energy and focus to create a life I simply love.  I am a life-long learner and I adore messing around with new technology, applications and systems, and practices – not only in my business but in my life.

Currently, I live in Rome, Italy with my family. My husband, Erick, is an officer of the United States Air Force, serving as a military diplomat to Italy. I have one 5-year old daughter, Clara, who has spent each of her birthdays in a different country. Both my husband and I are self-proclaimed foodies and travel-lovers.
