I built this firm to shape a future of work that is human-first, equity-rooted, and created with those too often left out of leadership and innovation.

​

As an Eritrean American immigrant and mother, resilience has defined my journey. Arriving in the U.S. at 13, I learned early that no one should have to struggle alone to feel seen, safe, or supported. That belief drives everything I do.

​

For 15+ years, I’ve been at the frontlines of labor relations, workforce equity, and organizational transformation negotiating contracts, building equity pipelines, and driving cultural change that touches thousands of lives. My work has spanned unions, nonprofits, and public agencies, always with one goal: to put people at the center of power.

​

As a certified leadership coach, I champion women of color to lead with clarity, confidence, and self-trust. I know the weight of cultural expectations and structural barriers and I also know the brilliance and strength we hold. My coaching is about harnessing that power with softness, strategy, and vision.

​

Through MindKind Collective, I bring strategy and soul together. Grounded in justice, dignity, and healing-centered leadership, I partner with executives and frontline teams alike to move beyond performative change into impact that lasts.

​

I’m also a proud mother of two, and my deepest motivation comes from asking: What kind of world will my children inherit? This work is my answer a movement to reimagine leadership and the future of work through equity, empathy, and courage.
