David K, Co-founder & CEO
Regardless of whether I go into a conversation scattered or with something specific, I come out having more clarity. David challenges my assumptions, asks the hard questions, and helps me make sure I'm in a positive mindset when making difficult decisions. He helps me be more thoughtful in my work and relationships.
Emily S, ACC Coach
Working with David as my mentor coach was one of the most valuable experiences in my ACC credential renewal process, and I’ve continued working with him far beyond that because it’s been so beneficial. He has a unique ability to make the ICF competencies and markers come alive in real, usable ways. Together, we’ve reviewed my recorded coaching sessions, analyzed what’s happening in the conversation, as well as talked through real-world client scenarios outside of recordings.
Through those conversations, I’ve developed a fuller understanding of the art of coaching and how to apply it authentically in my own style. I notice new things, feel more confident and equipped in many situations, and have added meaningful tools to my coaching toolkit. Working with David has unquestionably made me a better coach.

David has been a significant presence and positive force in my life over the months since he agreed to be my coach. His insights, perspective and support has been invaluable to me during a career transformation. Amazing to me was how quickly he connected with me. In the process of doing so, he created a safe, comfortable and productive environment; built on trust, respect and absence of any personal judgement. I look forward to discovering the possibilities for the future. Thank You Coach Dave!
