  Janet began her career as a registered nurse and later transitioned into psychotherapy. She kept a private practice for many years, which later expanded into coaching and consulting. For 12 years she worked with a major training company, facilitating two, five-day workshops throughout North America: 'The Pursuit of Excellence' and 'The Wall.' She found it very rewarding to help thousands of people clarify and reach their personal and professional goals. She also held full-time faculty positions for two years at the University of Washington and Bellevue Community College. Janet also had a rich military career, with three years active duty in the Army including one year in a Viet Nam field hospital. This was followed by 17 years in the active reserve, finally retiring as a Lieutenant Colonel in 1993. In addition to her coaching and training business, she is also the facilitator/trainer for Excellence Northwest, a non-profit professional and personal effectiveness organization. She currently leads two, four-day programs: 'ReSet for Excellence' and 'BreakThru to Excellence'.

Janet holds a BS from Columbia University in New York City, an MS from the University of Washington, and numerous certificates in leadership and coaching.

Janet's passions involve anything physically active in the outdoors (bicycling, hiking, skiing, climbing, kayaking). She also loves digging in the dirt, felines, reading and film. She is president of the board of Sustainable Connections and active in the First Congregational Church of Bellingham, UCC.
