Together, we were trying to uncover the elements of peak performance that made these individuals leaders in their sports and businesses.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, we wanted to develop a company that could take what we learned and combine it with best practices, effective tools, and expert delivery to help individuals and businesses to learn from these high performers. After more than two years of interviews and analysis, we found that all our subjects shared the same core features:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>They had a passion for what they were doing<\/li>\n<li>They had a clear vision of where they wanted to go<\/li>\n<li>They knew how to construct clear plans of action for getting to their destination<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Together, these three elements form the PVA model for performance.<\/p>\n<p>Today, PVA Consulting brings these elements together with more than 15 years of experience in education, human systems, behavior, and mentoring to support our clients to cultivate highly effective relationships that will allow them to grow and thrive.<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_blank_spacer height=&#8221;30px&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;] [spb_button button_text=&#8221;Get in touch&#8221; button_size=&#8221;standard&#8221; button_colour=&#8221;accent&#8221; button_type=&#8221;bordered&#8221; rounded=&#8221;no&#8221; button_dropshadow=&#8221;no&#8221; button_link=&#8221;\/contact\/&#8221; button_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; align=&#8221;left&#8221; animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;] [\/spb_column] [spb_blank_spacer height=&#8221;40px&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;] [\/spb_row] [spb_row element_name=&#8221;Row&#8221; wrap_type=&#8221;full-width-stretch&#8221; row_bg_type=&#8221;color&#8221; row_bg_color=&#8221;#f5f5f5&#8243; color_row_height=&#8221;content-height&#8221; bg_image=&#8221;463&#8243; bg_type=&#8221;cover&#8221; parallax_image_height=&#8221;content-height&#8221; parallax_image_movement=&#8221;fixed&#8221; parallax_image_speed=&#8221;standard&#8221; bg_video_loop=&#8221;yes&#8221; parallax_video_height=&#8221;window-height&#8221; row_id=&#8221;about&#8221; row_name=&#8221;about&#8221; row_top_style=&#8221;none&#8221; row_bottom_style=&#8221;none&#8221; parallax_video_overlay=&#8221;color&#8221; row_overlay_opacity=&#8221;0&#8243; remove_element_spacing=&#8221;yes&#8221; row_col_spacing=&#8221;0&#8243; row_col_pos=&#8221;default&#8221; row_col_content_pos=&#8221;center&#8221; row_col_equal_heights=&#8221;yes&#8221; row_expanding=&#8221;no&#8221; row_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; row_animation_delay=&#8221;0&#8243; minimize_row=&#8221;no&#8221; simplified_controls=&#8221;yes&#8221; custom_css_percentage=&#8221;no&#8221; custom_css=&#8221;margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;padding-left: 25px;padding-right: 25px;&#8221; border_styling_global=&#8221;default&#8221; el_class=&#8221;mb0 pb0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;] [spb_column col_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; col_animation_delay=&#8221;0&#8243; col_responsive_vis=&#8221;hidden-xs_hidden-sm&#8221; col_bg_type=&#8221;cover&#8221; col_parallax_image_movement=&#8221;fixed&#8221; col_parallax_image_speed=&#8221;0.5&#8243; col_padding=&#8221;0&#8243; col_vertical_offset=&#8221;0&#8243; col_horizontal_offset=&#8221;0&#8243; col_custom_zindex=&#8221;0&#8243; col_sm=&#8221;3&#8243; simplified_controls=&#8221;yes&#8221; custom_css_percentage=&#8221;no&#8221; padding_vertical=&#8221;400&#8243; padding_horizontal=&#8221;0&#8243; margin_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; custom_css=&#8221;margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;&#8221; border_styling_global=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first&#8221;] [spb_image image=&#8221;428&#8243; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; frame=&#8221;noframe&#8221; caption_pos=&#8221;hover&#8221; remove_rounded=&#8221;yes&#8221; fullwidth=&#8221;no&#8221; overflow_mode=&#8221;none&#8221; link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; lightbox=&#8221;no&#8221; intro_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;200&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;][\/spb_image] [\/spb_column] [spb_column col_sm=&#8221;9&#8243; padding_horizontal=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243; el_position=&#8221;last&#8221;] [spb_blank_spacer height=&#8221;20px&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;] [spb_text_block animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;0&#8243; simplified_controls=&#8221;yes&#8221; custom_css_percentage=&#8221;no&#8221; padding_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; padding_horizontal=&#8221;50&#8243; margin_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; custom_css=&#8221;margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;padding-left: 50px;padding-right: 50px;&#8221; border_size=&#8221;0&#8243; border_styling_global=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;]\n<h2>About me<\/h2>\n<p>I have been working with families and individuals in educational, behavioral, and business settings for more than 15 years. I have a passion for learning and I\u2019m very comfortable stepping into conflict to find harmonious solutions. In 2018, I completed a PhD in Educational Psychology at the University of Hawaii, Manoa where my research focused on mentoring relationships between family members (familial mentoring) and organizational behavior. I am also a licensed mental health counselor in Hawaii.<\/p>\n<p>Also in 2018, I launched a study exploring mentoring relationships in the context of family owned businesses.\u00a0 The study is drawing support from an international group of families and professionals. I\u2019ve published numerous academic papers and two international book chapters on topics related to education, behavioral health, mentoring, and the use of assistive-technologies in group learning.<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [\/spb_column] [\/spb_row] [spb_row element_name=&#8221;Row&#8221; wrap_type=&#8221;full-width-contained&#8221; row_bg_type=&#8221;color&#8221; row_bg_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; color_row_height=&#8221;content-height&#8221; bg_image=&#8221;328&#8243; bg_type=&#8221;cover&#8221; parallax_image_height=&#8221;content-height&#8221; parallax_image_movement=&#8221;stellar&#8221; parallax_image_speed=&#8221;standard&#8221; bg_video_loop=&#8221;yes&#8221; parallax_video_height=&#8221;window-height&#8221; row_id=&#8221;speaking&#8221; row_name=&#8221;Speaking &amp; more&#8221; row_top_style=&#8221;none&#8221; row_bottom_style=&#8221;none&#8221; parallax_video_overlay=&#8221;color&#8221; row_overlay_opacity=&#8221;0&#8243; remove_element_spacing=&#8221;no&#8221; row_col_spacing=&#8221;40&#8243; row_col_pos=&#8221;default&#8221; row_col_equal_heights=&#8221;yes&#8221; row_expanding=&#8221;no&#8221; row_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; row_animation_delay=&#8221;0&#8243; minimize_row=&#8221;no&#8221; simplified_controls=&#8221;yes&#8221; custom_css_percentage=&#8221;no&#8221; custom_css=&#8221;margin-top: 62px;margin-bottom: 62px;&#8221; border_styling_global=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;] [spb_text_block animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;0&#8243; simplified_controls=&#8221;yes&#8221; custom_css_percentage=&#8221;no&#8221; padding_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; padding_horizontal=&#8221;0&#8243; margin_vertical=&#8221;25&#8243; custom_css=&#8221;margin-top: 25px;margin-bottom: 25px;&#8221; border_size=&#8221;0&#8243; border_styling_global=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first&#8221;]\n<h5>As a speaker<\/h5>\n<p>I have presented at local, national, and international conferences.
