Sally is a citizen activist, earth conservator, visionary, human potential coach and leader, philanthropist, teacher and mother along side of being an experienced home owner.
Sally has devoted her life to helping others reach their highest potential. Whether working as an elementary school teacher, school board chair or serving as a leadership coach to social entrepreneurs, Sally brings a wealth of compassion and life experience to every task she takes on. A native Cape Codder, Sally’s personal and professional trajectories have spanned the fields of education, organizational development, personal recovery, professional culinary arts, environmental activism, wellness coaching and leadership. Her most recent endeavor is addressing housing development in Dennis Village.
A graduate of Barnard College ‘85, Sally went on to study cooking at the French Culinary Institute, where she graduated with distinction. She worked for Ina Garten, "the Barefoot Contessa", at her East Hampton eatery as well as participating in the startup of Nick and Toni’s; both pioneers in the farm to table movement. Sally later went on to own and operate her own gourmet take out shop in Chatham.
Working to support and empower so many nonprofit leaders over the years kindled Sally’s interest in formal study of human potential. She has trained extensively and is a certified life, leadership and human potential coach. She trained with the renowned organizations CTI and Bulletproof becoming ICF certified. Sally’s deep-seated belief that the health of the environment hinges on the health of the activist has led to her private practice near her home on Cape Cod.
When Sally is not out helping make the world the best it can be, she is ensconced in the home she designed for herself and her daughter, surrounded by family and friends, her many art projects and her two Siamese cats, Violet and Lulu and all the other wildlife that call Hope Lane home.
