A B O U T M E  Photo by Karina Marie Diaz I am deeply curious about human beings; I have been since I was a little girl. I love to know what, and how, people think - what inspires them and where they sell out on themselves. And, I LOVE variety! For me, it is the spice of life. I used to wish that I was the type of person who could do the same thing every day, but I am just not wired that way and once I was able to embrace that, my world opened up. I consider my life to be like a rich fabric with all the things I love to do interwoven within it. Born in New Zealand and now a US Resident, I am living proof that dreams do come true, and because of my New Zealand heritage I naturally bring diversity to anyone I interact with. I hold a BA in Psychology from Victoria University in Wellington, New Zealand. I have completed extensive training through The Coaches Training Institute, among other coach training programs. I have worked with entrepreneurs, government departments, small and large businesses in coaching, training and facilitation roles. I am on the Board of the Greater Gardner Coalition, which is a Neighborhood Advisory Committee part of San Jose City Council’s Strong Neighborhood Initiative. This role allows me to partake in the decisions that directly affect the Willow Glen neighborhood I live in, as well as giving something back to my community. May you find what you love in life and pursue it with passion, Catherine
