About Jenn
Your Leadership Coach
On Leap Day 2012, I took a leap and I founded Ambition Leadership with a desire to build a company that practiced the leadership behaviors it promoted to clients. I’m a former corporate leader of a large, matrixed consulting firm, with over 20 years of leadership and learning development experience in government, non-profit, and corporate entities. I have extensive experience in change management initiatives and leadership program design and implementation. I help organizations stand up coaching programs and train leaders, but what I love best is working one-on-one with leaders as a coach.
A former Washington DC resident, I now live in Indianapolis, Indiana with my husband, children, and English Springer Spaniel named Brutus. I’d do anything for a homemade chocolate chip cookie and love wiggling my toes in beach sand when I get the chance.

How is Ambition Leadership Different?
Many consulting firms claim to be the best at everything but fall short. Ambition partners with other boutique firms with expertise in one specific area. When a company comes to Ambition with a challenge, Ambition experts listen and ask questions to accurately diagnose the client’s needs. Ambition then identifies the necessary expertise and assembles the right “dream team” to carry out the solution.
