Always Ready to Leap
Heather doesn’t just rise to challenges — sometimes, she literally jumps for them (that isn’t a stock photo; that’s really her). Whether it’s testing ideas, tackling new projects, or diving into experiences, she approaches everything with energy, curiosity, and a willingness to take bold risks.
That mid-air mindset is the same one she brings to coaching, consulting, and creative work: fearless, engaged, and unapologetically herself.
Grit Meets Growth
College volleyball taught her how to turn pressure into performance, master teamwork, and think strategically on the fly. On the court, she discovered she loved pushing herself and others, and realized early that teaching and speaking to communities energized her just as much as competition. Those lessons — from motivating teammates to inspiring young students — became the foundation for her work coaching, consulting, and helping individuals and organizations reach their full potential.
Making Each Other Better
Long before DEI was a corporate buzzword, Heather was on national TV talking about sisterhood and how people can lift each other by learning to relate better. Appearing on The Tyra Banks Show was just one stage for a lifelong focus: helping individuals and teams connect, understand each other, and perform at their best.
Heather’s work — from media appearances to consulting to community outreach — has always had, at its core, the goal of building bridges, not silos.
Classrooms, Boardrooms, and Beyond.
Heather has never been shy about speaking up — a trait that carried her all the way to becoming a college professor before age 30. Since then, she’s taken that voice from lectures to corporate trainings, leading talks that sharpen teams and speaking at graduations to encourage young achievers. Whether teaching, training, or inspiring an audience, she turns ideas into action and leaves people stronger than they came in.
Lessons from the court, applied everywhere.
Years on the volleyball court taught Heather more than technique — they taught her how to read people, anticipate challenges, and turn pressure into performance. The same principles used to coach athletes to their peak now guide leaders, teams, and creators to get better, faster, and smarter at whatever they do. Discipline, focus, and strategy aren’t just for sports — they’re the tools for mastering any game, professional or personal.
