Tina hails from New Jersey where she began her journey studying criminal behavior from Rutgers University. Upon graduation she moved to New York City (Manhattan) for the next decade, climbing the corporate world ladder and exploring all the culture and the people had to offer. She continued her own personal development and studies of human behavior and transpersonal psychology and coaching from Landmark Education. Here she eventually worked with the leadership to produce weekend personal development seminars and coach the advanced leadership program. Here she was trained to work directly with future innovators and staff by providing listening and coaching to empower and enable them in achieving extraordinary results in any matter that is important to them. It was here where she also began her study of Neuro-Linguistic Programming in order to help people in being able to operate in the world without past thought pattern limitations.

Tina eventually moved to Washington DC to receive her MBA in transformational leadership and innovation. She was able to study Global Leadership in Denmark and received certifications in Design Thinking and Innovation in Grenoble, France and Artificial Intelligence Strategy from MIT. Since then she has gone on to lead global and national teams on in communication and new market strategy. Now considered the “Wendy Rhodes” of the government consulting world, and utilizing all of her prior studies and experience, she supports a team of veterans on bridging leadership and sales skills from the military into the corporate world.

At the same time Tina is apprenticing as a medicine woman. She uses NLP, psychology, energy work and deep intuition to help people deepen their medicine journeys and to integrate their experiences into their daily lives. She owns her own integration coaching business and is on her way to receiving her Psychedelic Therapy Certification. One of her favorite tools is using the Sphinx Code to support people in seeing themselves more clearly and deepening their healing work.
