A Unique Bridge Between Two Worlds
As a fifth-generation inheritor with deep Swiss Alpine roots, I bring a rare perspective to wealth integration coaching. Though I lost my father—a Swiss mountain guide—at age five, his parents instilled in me the humble values and grounded wisdom of the Alps. This unique blend of experiences—navigating inherited wealth while being raised with mountain discipline, integrity, and fundamental values—allows me to create a balanced, judgment-free space where you can explore your authentic relationship with wealth while honoring both your family's legacy and your own path forward.
Who I Create the Greatest Impact With
Are Ready for Transformation
You recognize that your relationship with inherited wealth needs to shift, and you're committed to doing the deep personal work this requires. You're open to examining family patterns and your own beliefs about wealth.
Value Authenticity and Growth
You're seeking more than just wealth preservation—you want to develop an authentic relationship with your inheritance while growing into your full potential. You're willing to engage in honest self-reflection and meaningful dialogue.
Take Active Responsibility
You understand that being a conscious inheritor requires ongoing learning and engagement. You're ready to step fully into your role as a steward of family wealth, rather than passively receiving it.
Embrace Both Legacy and Innovation
You respect your family's heritage while being open to new approaches. You're interested in finding fresh ways to honor your legacy while creating positive impact in today's world.
Commit to Personal Wellbeing
You understand that effective wealth stewardship starts with taking care of yourself. You're willing to prioritize your mental and emotional health as part of your wealth integration journey.
Through Our Work Together, You Will:
Make confident wealth decisions aligned with your values

Your Next Step

Schedule a confidential Alpine Strategy Session where we'll:
Explore your current challenges with inherited wealth
Identify your most important priorities
Discuss potential paths forward
Determine if we're the right fit for working together
All conversations are completely confidential and held in a judgment-free space.

The International Coaching Federation defines coaching as “partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential. The process of coaching often unlocks previously untapped sources of imagination, productivity and leadership.”

Coaching is not a substitute for therapy. If you’re going through a crisis and you feel so overwhelmed you have trouble functioning, a therapist is often your best option.
Coaching is NOT about working through your past traumas. It’s about focusing on actionable steps to improve your life.
I am happy to work with your therapist to give you the best support you need.
-
Once we’ve established our working relationship, each session’s agenda is yours.
-
Unless otherwise organized, we shall meet on Zoom.
-
You are creative, resourceful and whole and have the answer within.
We change by feeling good and this includes feeling safe and non-judged.
You, the client, creates the agenda.
I'm not the expert. I won’t tell you what to do but will refer out and give you tools, if needed.
Coaching is “in-vivo” not “in-vitro” and is present and future-action based.

Illegal activity, if required by law, pursuant to valid court order or subpoena; imminent or likely risk of danger to self or to others. Where I reasonably believe one of the above circumstances is applicable, I may need to inform appropriate authorities.

You’ll see if partnering with me could provide you with what you think you'll need to improve your performance and brain health.
Sessions are on Zoom, Google, or over the phone.
Space for you to think and process.
