About Yolanda

Her formative years spent as the youngest of a Peace Corps family, Yolanda lived in such far- flung places as Caracas, Venezuela and Monrovia, Liberia. Her adventurous beginnings continued into her adult life with ‘adult onset athleticism’ leading her to find her passions in running and soccer along with her love for gourmet cooking, great wine and spending time with her husband Eric and two daughters. So, what about the work?

Using her sense of discovery and building on a successful career in accounting and marketing, Yolanda found her future in human and organizational development. She provides the unique ability to assess and design change that creates leadership growth and meaningful team experiences. Using her intuitive spirit and systems based approach, Yolanda partners with clients to create processes that produce sustainable outcomes and take individual and organization leadership to the next level. She holds an MA in Organizational Systems Design and Renewal from Seattle University and a BA in International Studies from the University of Washington along with post graduate certification in Leading and Designing Emergent Change.

Her consultative skills draw on 20 years of experience serving as Controller and Vice President. Working with clients such as City of Tacoma, Providence Health & Services WA/MT, frog design inc, National Cooperative Grocers Association (NCGA), Whidbey Institute at Chinook, Rise n’ Shine, C&D Zodiac and Community Schools of Orting, Yolanda understands the demands on leaders and the development necessary to build self-awareness and integrity within leadership.
