Turn Insight Into Impact

Executive leadership coaching for mission-driven leaders navigating complexity, growth, and change.

Meet Mireille Lopez Humes

I’m an executive leadership coach who partners with leaders to uncover what’s hidden beneath the surface, transforming perspective into power. With over two decades leading organizations through growth and change as a Vice President, Chief of Staff, Executive Director, and turnaround principal, I understand the weight, complexity, and nuance of executive leadership.


Certified through Georgetown University’s Institute for Transformational Leadership and holding two master’s degrees in leadership, I bring a rare blend of strategic insight, cultural fluency, and compassionate perspective to every engagement.


My coaching is rooted in a belief that growth begins by uncovering and building on a leader’s innate strengths, helping them lead with clarity, resilience, and authenticity.

Testimonials

"Working with Mireille helped me strengthen a part of my leadership I’ve always struggled with, having difficult conversations. There were a few times during our work together that this came up, and each time, Mireille helped me uncover why the conversations were challenging and how to have them in a way that worked for me and got the job done. She never told me what to do; she asked the right questions so that I could uncover the answers that worked for me. Her gentle accountability was exactly what I needed!”

Yolanda J, Director, Family League of Baltimore
