My work sits at the intersection of public health, law, leadership, and wellbeing. Through training, facilitation, and strategic culture work, I help organizations strengthen leadership capacity, prevent burnout, and build cultures of care that are practical, possible, and sustainable.

I focus on the kind of change that honors both people and purpose — and actually sticks.

Let’s build something better — together.

I help leadership teams rebuild capacity, engagement, and sustainable workplace culture using the public-health-informed RESET Method — a modern approach to burnout prevention, ethical and inclusive leadership, and workplace culture transformation.

Hi There

I’M DAWN

A person writing in a spiral notebook with a floral-patterned pen, multiple colorful markers on the table, and a black box in the background.

I’m a Workplace Culture Strategist and leadership keynote speaker specializing in organizational wellbeing, burnout prevention, ethical and inclusive leadership, and workplace culture transformation. I’m the founder of The Dawn Lab and creator of the RESET Method, a public-health-informed leadership methodology designed to rebuild leadership capacity, engagement, and sustainable workplace culture in modern organizations.

I believe boundaries aren’t barriers — they’re bridges. And when we create space for people to show up as whole humans, we don’t just improve morale. We shift power. We spark transformation. And we create conditions where both individuals and institutions can truly thrive.

I’m the founder of The Dawn Lab and a nationally recognized expert in organizational wellbeing and workplace culture strategy. My work bridges public health, law, leadership, and equity — bringing research-informed, human-centered solutions to organizations that are navigating burnout, disengagement, and leadership capacity gaps.

I’ve led national initiatives that connect public health, policy, and organizational wellbeing, including serving as lead author of the Health & Democracy Index and advising leadership development efforts such as Emerging Leaders in Public Health. I hold advanced training in public health, law, and wellness leadership, and I bring a unique interdisciplinary perspective that blends rigor with compassion.

When I’m not collaborating with leadership teams, you’ll likely find me on a yoga mat, curled up with a good book, or chasing joy with my fur babies — because sustainable leadership starts with living what we teach.
