I bring over 20 years of experience leading marketing teams and shaping stories for some of the country’s top media brands. Along the way, I’ve learned how to spot the “white space”—those untapped opportunities where ideas, people, and growth come together.

After two decades of running at full speed in leadership roles, I hit a moment many of my clients know well: I was successful on paper, but something deeper was calling. I paused, realigned my values, and redefined what growth means for me. That journey sparked the start of Wellspring Coaching.

Now, I work with individuals and small business owners who are in transition—whether you’re craving clarity, ready for your next big move, or looking to build smarter, more meaningful momentum. I blend sharp strategy with genuine curiosity to help cut through the noise, uncover fresh direction, and move forward with confidence.
At the heart of my work is the belief that strategy and humanity belong together. Whether we’re diving into career reinvention or refining a business’s message, I lead with empathy, insight, and a bias for action.

When I’m not coaching or consulting, you’ll probably find me walking the beaches of Long Island, helping a friend polish their resume, or reminding people that reinvention isn’t a crisis—
it’s a calling.

Hi, I'm Maria! 
Strategist, coach, and founder of Wellspring Coaching NY. 

I bring over 20 years of experience leading marketing teams and shaping stories for some of the country’s top media brands. Along the way, I learned to spot the “white space”—those overlooked places where people, ideas, and growth meet.

After years of running full speed, I hit a turning point: I had outward success, but something deeper was missing. Realigning my values led to new clarity—and the start of Wellspring Coaching NY.

Today, I help individuals and small business owners in transition find direction, momentum, and meaning. I bring curiosity, strategy, and a bias for action to every session.

I believe strategy and humanity belong together. Reinvention isn’t a crisis—it’s a calling.

If you can imagine it, you can achieve it.
Your personal history is proof of that ;)

You can either live your dreams... or your fears. #ichoosedreams

Putting yourself first allows you to better serve others. #getonyourlist
