About Pete
Prior to running my own thriving business as an executive coach and training facilitator, I spent two decades in the healthcare industry. In the early 1990’s, I was on the forefront of the AIDS education and prevention movement. Working with a statewide non-profit, I provided educational outreach, facilitated trainings, ran a foodbank and hot meal delivery program, facilitated support groups and helped establish a housing program. It was during this time that I first utilized my program development and management skills, creating and implementing two new outreach programs and managing up to 75 people.
After completing a master’s degree in from the University of California at Berkeley, I continued my work in program development and management, designing, managing, and staffing a program for the 11 years of its existence. Once this program ended, I decided to bring my leadership experience and behavior change expertise to the corporate world. I now draw on my insight, empathic approach, and two decades of proven success to help people make significant, meaningful and lasting change in their lives.
My father was in the State Department and I was born in Thailand. I spent my earliest years overseas and my adolescence in the Washington, D.C. area. I now live in the San Francisco Bay Area, where I have been a happy East Coast transplant for more than 20 years.
