Hi! I’m Mason.

I coach unconventional humans with big hearts who are tired of fitting into a box and yearn to create more joy and freedom in their lives.

I spent the first 13 years of my career trying desperately to fit into a box. It worked for a while, until it didn’t. I burned out, over and over again, trying box after box, until I finally came to realize that I never wanted to find the right box. I wanted to learn to find joy outside of any box.

My clients come from all kinds of backgrounds—engineering, medicine, finance, product—but all share a deep desire to find their own paths through life, a vibrant creative streak, a sense of humor, and a warm compassion for people.

  • "My coaching sessions with Mason left me feeling uplifted, energized, inspired, and bold. He listened not only to what I said but also to the deeper meaning behind the words and my body language. He helped me to recognize my limiting thoughts and guided me with tools to enrich my personal growth. He genuinely loves helping people, and his caring and thoughtful approach is felt by everyone around him. What are you waiting for? Book your first session with Mason today!"

  • "I was lucky to meet Mason early in my career. Even though I wasn’t on his team, he generously offered to mentor me. Mason partners with you to understand your unique situation and uncover insights to unlock new paths forward. His coaching transformed me from feeling lost and overwhelmed to confident and capable. I can’t recommend him enough for anyone looking to take not just their career, but their personal growth to the next level."

what if…

You had a trusted partner to help you unpack all of the messy thoughts and feelings that make the important moments so sticky? Someone who could help you uncover the crux of the situation and then empower you to move through it? What if you had a safe and non-judgmental space to explore what joy and freedom you are really capable of creating in your life?

who am i?

I am Co-Active trained professional coach and facilitator, a former engineering leader (Google, Airtable, Grammarly), hip-hop dancer, singer, baker, parent, and many other identities. I’ve worked on some of the largest-scale software systems on the planet, performed with dance groups across the Bay Area, learned to love marathon running and powerlifting, spent three months making sourdough at a bakery, and grappled with the sheer terror and joy of raising a child. I’m constantly trying new things but the one constant in my life is my love of helping people grow through warmth, curiosity, and a borderline unhinged sense of optimism and playfulness.
