CEO, Global Center for Human Development (GCHD)

As CEO of the Global Center for Human Development, I lead with a commitment to helping people and organizations grow with empathy, purpose, and resilience. At GCHD, we focus on human-centered growth,  empowering individuals through self-compassion, narrative coaching, and leadership development that fosters well-being and lasting impact.

My work is grounded in the belief that when people feel supported, they create healthier workplaces and stronger communities. This philosophy shapes everything we do, from transformative coaching and consulting to the Harmony Advantage Pathway, which helps leaders embed empathy and compassion into organizational culture.

Before leading GCHD, I spent over 15 years teaching organizational behavior, DEI, and interpersonal communication, and I founded the Oaknna Foundation, supporting humanitarian and empowerment projects in Sudan, including Art by Blind.

At GCHD, we envision workplaces where wellness and compassion drive success — and where people thrive together in harmony.
