ABOUT DFCC

Hi, I’m Coach Deni.

I’m an executive coach, career strategist, and diversity consultant.

 

I’VE BEEN FEATURED IN


When coaching and strategizing, there’s nothing that I love more than helping executives and professionals gain clarity, new managers build confidence, entrepreneurs grow ideas, and businesses develop plans that transform.

 

 

I believe that when your goals are in alignment and integrity with who you are at your core, you show up differently. 

That’s why I help you rediscover what you really, truly want to do; empowering you to stop settling and build a career where you feel valued, appreciated, and inspired. 

Leveraging a brain-based coaching philosophy, over a decade of strategy experience, and my natural flare for structure and planning, I guide my clients to set powerful goals and accelerate their paths to success.

"Deni’s coaching was a catalyst for helping me to reflect on what I really wanted to do in my career and strategize on pathways to shift industries and positions. Her questions and feedback bolstered my confidence to apply for positions that I had previously thought were out of my reach. She brainstormed with me how my skills and experience would make me a strong candidate for business school which is something I am pursuing now largely as a result of our work together. Our work together was truly worthwhile!”

I’ve Mastered the Art of Pivots and Transitions 

AS A FORMER MILITARY KID , I'm no stranger to change and navigating the often uncomfortable ambiguity that comes with it. From Finance, Public Affairs, Social Media, Supply Chain/Operations to Strategy, I've mastered the art of pivots and transitions. 

My clients appreciate my engaging personality, highly tuned listening ears, and structured thinking. I'm super passionate about helping professionals, entrepreneurs and businesses set and exceed powerful strategic goals.

 

 

 

My Mission and Passion…

I empower high performing executives and managers to dare to dream their biggest dreams and develop career strategies that help create their ideal lives—  without settling, without sacrificing authenticity and without falling victim to imposter syndrome.

I help organizations find better and more inclusive ways to do business and support their team members. We build lasting cultural change through creating safe spaces for team members to be their whole selves, and by breaking down barriers that promote and preserve inequities.
