Bio

Devon has over 17 years of experience in the tech sector, where she's led people, program, product, and go-to-market development for Google and YouTube across Sales, Operations, Partnerships, Product, and Go-To-Market teams. Devon is a holistic coach specializing in the intersection of life and career at any stage. Her mission as a coach is to empower people to understand their authentic selves and find fulfillment with themselves and their careers. She’ll partner with you, asking insightful questions to help you articulate your goals and strengths, identify and overcome limiting beliefs, and chart a path toward your own optimal balance of personal and professional achievement. She encourages her clients' accountability in taking action toward reaching their goals and champions you as you make connections and take your initial steps.

Devon has a strong passion for diversity, equity, and inclusion, and has experience supporting folks in historically underrepresented groups. She's a mom to two young daughters and understands the challenges (and joys!) of balancing life and career. As an intrinsically active person, she's often found outdoors - running, riding horses, hiking, exploring, and traveling. She honors the connection between all living beings and celebrates our harmony.
