latitude (n.) scope for freedom of action or thought
where could more latitude take you?
Leadership coaching isn’t just for leaders.
It’s for navigating the space between who you are now and who you’re becoming — in work, or in life. Where there’s no map to guide you and the way forward is anything but clear. And you don’t have to go it alone.
Two decades as a technologist and executive in Silicon Valley taught me that skills and knowledge — even talent — will only take you so far. The missing ingredient? Your capacity to access them. Especially when the pressure is on.
That’s what I help you build.

For You
One-on-one coaching for leaders, entrepreneurs or anyone in the middle of a big transition, whether that’s a new role, a new venture or a life that’s outgrown its old shape.
Knowing what needs to change is hard enough, let alone bridging the gap between knowing and doing. Especially when the playbook that’s worked so well for you in the past suddenly isn’t.
We get underneath the patterns and conditioning that keep you stuck so that you can show up with more awareness, presence and confidence when it counts.

For Your Team
Workshops, training and facilitation that inspire and energize, built around what your team is actually navigating: rapid growth, a reorg, a tough stretch or friction that won’t go away.
When a team is facing change or uncertainty (or both), alignment matters more than ever. After years helping turn struggling teams around, I’ve learned this firsthand, sometimes the hard way.
Agreement can be mandated. Alignment can’t. It comes from a team that’s fully invested in working better together. Not from one person. That’s the shift I help teams make.

Going Deeper
Some things are easier to see from a mountain than a meeting room. Small-group experiential retreats in awe-inspiring places: surfing in Mexico, fly fishing in Montana, exploring the Costa Rican rainforest.
Pushing our edges has a way of clarifying what really matters to us. Slowing down gives it room to sink in. And balancing both is what turns temporary insight into lasting change.
I’ve been guiding people for years — figuratively and literally — and these gatherings bring together what I love most about each.
“I didn’t go into coaching with a lot of expectations because I hadn’t had the best experience with it before. But working with Kelly was completely different. What stood out most was how well he listens and how quickly he’s able to get to the root of what’s really going on.”
– Randy, Head of Operations
“The biggest unlock for me was the distinction between skills and capacity. I already had a lot of the core leadership skills, but Kelly helped me think differently about whether I actually had the space and awareness to use them well in real time. He’s thoughtful, candid, and very present.”
– Henry, VP of Product
“My main intention was just to see if I’m even capable of relaxing, because it was always really hard for me… Not only have I been able to relax, the space that this relaxation has created has let in so many other emotions and perspectives, and allowed me to see myself and the world in a completely new light.”
– Evgeny, Principal Engineer
“When Kelly came in, the situation felt like a confusing mess, and I wasn’t clear on how to even begin addressing it. He could see patterns from the outside that were very hard to see from inside the system. Since that work, we’ve seen meaningful shifts across the team.”
– Chad, Founder & CEO
