TESTIMONIALS
"June brings a wonderful blend of warmth and empathy with hard headed analysis of how to have the most possible impact. Her caring analysis values and affirms people while also while pushing them to see what more they can do and be. I have seen her gift for coaching and encouraging others”
Jen Ford Reedy
President, Bush Foundation
"You could both describe June as no nonsense clear, someone who gets straight to the issue, well boundaried, tenacious, strategic, but also someone who is incredible compassionate, funny as hell and has so much heart to give. When you are with June, you feel like she really sees you. It is a rare person who can be all of these things at ones, and it inspires me to be and do better."
Mandy Ellerton
Director, Community Innovation Program
“I have asked June for her advice and insights numerous times and my favorite thing is she always starts by saying, I am not going to tell you what to do. I appreciate that she can share her ideas then step back and let me and others put her advice into the specific context of our situation so we can determine the best path forward”
Jill Doerfler
Head, American Indian Studies, University of Minnesota - Duluth
"June is a brilliant strategist and has the ability to scope out a situation, identify key patterns and work through solutions with her clients. We were facing significant challenges - June helped us resolve all of them. Our team and I have benefited greatly from her consultation and coaching."

ABOUT ME
After a long career in education and philanthropy, I realized that I wanted to focus on working closely with individuals and organizations that drive significant change.
I was born in Kenya to immigrants from India. I went to study in the US, was forced by political circumstances to become a refugee, and eventually successfully immigrated and became a US citizen. I have since embarked on careers in the public and non-profit sectors where I was fortunate to create and design initiatives that brought good to many communities.
I am curious, laugh easily, and am very adaptable. I am supported by my family scattered all over the world, natural beauty and my wide and deep friendships. I am known to be wise and insightful, a keen strategic thinker and a very good coach.
I bring these talents to you.
I look forward to hearing from you and listening carefully to understand your needs. I am happy to discuss how I coach and consult, my fees and my approach.
