I help leaders and teams navigate conflict and repair relationships
Even the best equipped leaders need support in conflict
The best leaders put their people first.
But when conflict involves them, power dynamics can make navigating the relationship complex.
An outside party can hold the structure for both parties to be heard and understood equally.
We all want to be seen as innocent
Conflict resolution requires acknowledging both intentions and impacts.
It's difficult to hear another person's intention when we're feeling the pain of the impact.
I help parties bridge that gap by translating stories and blame into expressing what truly matters.

When we started, I was sure my co-founder was the problem. Working with Shu helped me slow down, listen, and see the situation more clearly. We got past the initial blowups, made real progress, and ultimately decided to part ways amicably. I left the process feeling grounded, having truly given it my best, and I'm using these skills with the rest of my team and in my life.
My Journey
I grew up in an immigrant family where we didn't talk about our feelings.
Conflict was either ignored or exploded into anger. As a kid, I learned that closeness didn't feel safe, so I kept people at a distance. I even disconnected from parts of myself.
Over the past decade, I've done the work to change that. What started as a way to survive became a path that gave my life meaning.
Today, I help others build the same awareness, tools, and patterns that helped me.
My background includes:
- Former VP of Engineering

- Trained in NVC-based mediation
- Trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS)-based mediation

If you're ready to repair your relationship and find a new path forward, let's talk.
