Hi, I’m Quyen!

I can help you work through issues stumping you—big or small.

In my coaching and consulting work, I use a lens of empathy and compassion, rooted in an understanding of power structures.

I also design and facilitate programs, retreats, and conferences.

Interested in generating new ways of thinking, building harmonious relationships and teams, and/or working through blockages?

Let’s chat.
