Location New York City, New York, United States
Introduction I grew up in Westchester County which is about 25 miles from NYC. At 18 I attended The American Musical And Dramatic Academy studying musical theatre and acting under Philip Burton. Soon after, I sang backup in a Top 40 band in the Tri-State area. I then travelled to Buenos Aires singing Disco where I performed for very large audiences. I was called "The Disco Diva" and was written up in the newspapers and performed on Argentine and Chilean TV. It was the thrill of a lifetime. After pursuing a record deal, I felt the need to live a more stable life so I started selling advertising space for Columbia University and Billboard Magazine. Years later I began my career as a recruiter and it proved to be a natural fit. I started a business consulting individuals with resume development and interview preparation and went on to receive my coaching certification from Fowler Wainwright International Institute of Professional Coaching. I formed Chrysalis Career Coaching and I work with individuals, employees, and small business owners to help them identify and achieve their ideal career goals. I'm passionate about my work and I have finally found my niche.
