Our Story
Our journeys may have taken different paths, through corporate leadership, higher education, public and military service, coaching, teaching, and mentorship, but they have led us to the same belief: people have incredible potential when they are given the right support, perspective, and opportunity to grow.
Together, we bring decades of diverse leadership and professional experience to Executing U Consulting with one shared purpose: helping people recognize their strengths, own their stories, discover their purpose, and confidently navigate what comes next.
Whether working with a student preparing for the future, a professional navigating change, or a leader seeking to make a greater impact, we believe growth begins with clarity and becomes meaningful through action.
Your experiences shape your story. Your potential creates possibilities. But what you do next is up to you.
Discover your purpose. Own your story. Execute your future.
—Kim & Ja’von

About Kim
When I think about coaching, I’m reminded of one of the greatest gifts I ever received: patience. As a curious child, I was always asking questions, and my mother gave me space to explore, reflect, and discover answers for myself.
That experience shaped how I coach today. I believe growth happens when people feel heard, supported, and empowered to look within, challenge old assumptions, and uncover new possibilities.
With more than 25 years of corporate experience, including over 17 years in leadership and coaching, I bring real-world insight, empathy, and intentional guidance to each conversation.
My coaching approach is centered on partnership, trust, curiosity, and self-discovery. I create a safe space for clients to explore their potential, increase self-awareness, build practical tools, and move forward with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
I coach to help people access their own power, strengthen their voice, and take meaningful action toward the results they want to create.
If you’re ready to explore what’s possible and move forward with greater clarity and confidence, I invite you to connect and begin the conversation.
About Ja’von
My journey has never been defined by one career path or experience. For more than a decade, I have served in leadership, education, public service, and military roles. These experiences have shaped how I understand leadership, growth, and the power of helping others recognize their potential.
Today, I serve as a senior higher education leader, educator, mentor, and military officer. Across these roles, I have worked with people at different stages of their personal and professional journeys, including students finding their direction, emerging professionals navigating career decisions, and leaders developing the confidence to take their next step.
My military service has strengthened my understanding of accountability, discipline, adaptability, teamwork, and mission-focused leadership. My work in higher education and mentorship has taught me the equally important value of listening, asking thoughtful questions, recognizing potential, and helping people turn possibility into action.
I am especially passionate about helping people navigate transitions: from high school to college, college to career, employee to leader, or simply from where they are today to where they want to be.
Through Executing U Consulting, we are not here simply to tell people what they should do. We want to help them ask better questions, challenge the limitations they may have placed on themselves, expand what they believe is possible, and develop the confidence and tools necessary to move forward.
Because potential alone is not enough. At some point, you have to apply for the opportunity, walk into the room, have the difficult conversation, accept the challenge, take the risk, and become comfortable with growth. That is what Executing U means to me.
Client Testimonials
“I truly enjoyed my experience working with Kim. From our very first coaching call, I could tell that she was intentional in the questions she asked and genuinely invested in helping me gain clarity around my personal goals.
