About Andréa
Hi there and welcome!
I am a Certified Life Coach & Leadership Coach, and the owner of Something New Solutions LLC. I help high-achieving women like you find happiness in their career and begin living fulfilling, authentic lives.
I recently completed a Leadership Coaching Course through NC State University. At the end of the course, after months of practice coaching with each other, we were asked to provide adjectives that described our classmates. Do you know what words came up the most to describe my coaching approach? Authentic, Friendly, Unique, & Creates a Safe Space.
I felt both humbled and proud to hear those words. My goal in every coaching session is to create a safe, friendly, and authentic space for my clients to show up fully as themselves. Qualified, certified, and educated professionals who do this as their job said I did that for them. It was a big moment in my career to have this level of validation.
Why did I share this story?
I shared this story because it’s hard to know someone from a website. It’s hard to tell if you’ll click or not. All you have are these words and my picture (Yes, I have sleeve tattoos, I also have a tendency to buck the status quo and consider rules to be more like “guidelines”… which is that Unique part coming out). There are so many coaches out there, how do you know if I’ll be worth your time or your money? I thought it was important to share a bit about my personality, the best way I knew how, so that you could start to make that decision. I highly recommend a free (no-pressure) call with me, to see if you agree with my course-mates’ description of my style.
Whether you are looking to make a change to your career path, switch up your daily life to heal from burnout, make a plan post break-up or divorce, start that business you’ve always dreamed of or go for that promotion, my evidence-based coaching methods will help get where you want to be. I believe in coaching the whole person and want to help you build the life you always wanted. Together, we will build a roadmap for your life, helping you reach your goals and live a fulfilling life.
I have over 15 years of professional and leadership experience in the technology industry, which provides me with a unique strategic and project management view of how we can plan for the future. I love poking holes in ideas and questioning “the way it’s always been done” and if I hear the words “We can’t do that…”, you better believe we’re going try doing it.
In addition to my coaching certifications, I hold an MBA in Management and Operations, a Bachelor’s in Cultural Anthropology, and an Associate’s in Psychology from the State University of New York. I am a life-long learner. You’ll often find me somewhere with a book in my hand or a podcast playing in the background. I also love hiking and being in nature – it is my happy place.
I’d love to hear more about you and your personal aspirations and goals. If you’re ready, set up a free call so we can start planning for that life you’ve always wanted!
