Leverage Your Expertise to
Build A Profitable
Consulting Practice

Personalized coaching to help finance professionals set up and scale their own consulting business ...from start to finish

It's Time To Make Money For Yourself

Many finance professionals dream of becoming an independent consultant, but
hesitate because they don’t have a clear path forward. Making the transition can feel:

Overwhelming

You know what you want, but not having a plan to get started has you feeling stuck

Risky

A consistent paycheck feels safe, you can't afford to take a chance on losing your income

Uncertain

Without knowing how and where to find clients, your expertise won't do you much good

Demanding

Running your own consulting business means everything falls solely on you

Reignite Your Purpose

I work with professionals who are ready to transition from undervalued employee to in demand consultant.
Together, I will guide you to use your skills, reputation and deep knowledge so you can:
Build a successful consulting practice by leveraging your experience without ever using manipulative selling
Earn higher profits by using your expertise to deliver transformation and certainty to your clients.
Hand-pick the clients you want to work with while focusing on your niche in the market
Enjoy the freedom of a lifestyle-friendly schedule while taking control of your career

NOW IS THE TIME TO
Transition with Confidence

and are ready for growth, I will guide you to the next level
