About Élan Image Management

As President and Chief Image Consultant of Élan Image Management, I coach my clients on how best to harness their own unique flair and lifestyle needs into a personal presence that is memorable, powerful and in alignment with their core values and beliefs.

Whether we are aware of it or not, we each have a personal brand that we express to others, through the way we look, dress, behave and communicate. Élan Image Management takes a holistic approach to the field of image consulting and incorporates our clients’ entire ‘image package’ into each consultation. I work with you to enhance and refine the positive things you already possess to create harmony and balance with your internal and external images. My goal is to build an image that reflects all of you. Therefore, my first step in a consultation with you is figuring out what truly motives you, what you’re passionate about and what you want in your life, so that I can create a look for you that captures your essence and helps you achieve your desires.

My mantra of “Presence with a Purpose” is simple: you can only project outward what you inherently believe to be true about yourself and what reflects and enhances your self image. Simply put, an ill conceived or inconsistent image can hinder or impede your ability to achieve your goals. These goals can be as basic as attracting the people you desire into your life, to more substantive ones such as reaching the height of your career aspirations. Think of your external image as your ‘packaging’ and your internal self image as your ‘product offering’. If your ‘package’ is at odds with your ‘product’, the end result is unbelievable. To create a favorable, credible impression, there must be an alignment of your internal belief system and values with your outward appearance.

Coupling decades of experience in fashion– dabbling in modeling, design and fashion styling- with years mentoring and motivating people to live to their fullest potential, I bring acute insight, compassion, creativity and a holistic perspective to my clients’ image and fashion challenges. I believe an image assessment/makeover is a life transforming event. It is also dynamic—as you evolve and change, so should your image.

With over 15 years of experience in marketing, I have often counseled corporate clients on understanding the drivers of their company brand reputation and corporate image and I leverage this experience at Élan Image Management. I believe that we each have the power to cultivate, refine and project the image of our choosing, once we are armed with the proper tools. My promise to clients is that I empower them to express their own unique personal style and flair regardless of their starting point on their own unique image journey. And this is true whether they are a size 6 or 16, young or old, male or female, have a closet full of clothes or very little, wealthy or not, looking to boost their professional presence or a personal one.
