About Me
I'm a professional leadership coach and trainer with years of experience in leadership.
as well as scientific training in physiology and nutrition. I'm an author, speaker, partner at Tipping Point Strategists, and professor at the George Washington University School of Medicine department of Clinical Research and Leadership.
Not an armchair theorist—I've been in leadership roles around the world; held positions at private companies and the Department of Defense; and have been an entrepreneur and VC-funded start-up founder.
I've worked with and coached people in all types of industry including (but not limited to):
engineering, technology, landscaping, AI, health & fitness, medicine and entertainment.
My own leadership roles were in 5-star, white-glove, high-profile fitness clubs and spas, where I learned how to handle stress, motivate others, and optimize my own performance through science-backed health habits.
I like to do things differently from the norm—and succeed. I can help you do it, too.
Along with experience and advanced degrees in business (MBA, Johns Hopkins), I have a deep background in science with advanced education in nutrition and physiology (BA, MA, University of Maryland College Park),
I've lived and worked internationally: New York City; Washington, DC; Honolulu, Hawaii; Silicon Valley; Seoul, South Korea; and now located in Los Angeles.
I will be the experienced, caring coach at your side,
helping you achieve the life you're bold enough to envision.

"After working with Luci, I eat better, I sleep better, I make better decisions, I make more money, I'm on top of my game, and I'm a better leader overall. I've tripled my income from last year, and it's only April."

I Will Help You:
Optimize your leadership skills and practices.
Being a successful leader —someone others want to follow— takes more than reading, attending conferences or workshops. It takes practice.
It helps to have a coach and an experienced confidant for honest feedback, staunch support, and a little push when necessary.
Maintain your edge.
Leaders maintain an edge: to consistently be creative and innovative, make great decisions, communicate exceptionally. We need to be motivational and inspirational. It all comes from within.
Who helps you maintain your edge?
Create exceptional stamina.
The right personal habits will make you physically and mentally younger and stronger—from your skin to your brain, right down to your DNA. This gives you an incredible advantage and puts you leagues in front of the rest.

Having known Luci for 3 years has been a real joy.
In one of our goal setting meetings she got me thinking and brainstorming in a way I wasn't used to.
The next action I took was a phone call that changed my life.
I was 59 at the time.
As a freelance entertainer, I now get work opportunities that the average person would miss out on, and they lead me to uniquely beneficial financial situations.
I live life for these exciting moments.

"Luci delivered more than expected, and my expectations were high. When we met for our first session, she engaged quickly and parsed through lots of new and disorganized information to identify and hone in on a critical thread to make quick progress and impact— she cut through a LOT of noise to make our time together beneficial to me; that was impressive."
