If you would like more information don't hesitate to call me at 646.745.7755 or email me using the form on my contact page.
My desire to work with people in achieving their goals and living satisfying lives has always been present. As I have moved through the challenges of my own life, it has become my primary interest. I have seen enough to convince me that a commitment to having a great life combined with openness to the ideas and support of qualified others makes anything possible.
I received my education from Fordham University, am licensed by the State of New York as a clinical therapist. Being a therapist is a second profession; having worked in the investment banking business for more than twenty years in roles varying from technical analyst to senior project manager.
