Understanding that strategy leads every idea, results define success and technology changes the way consumers behave, I’ve worked across disciplines and emerging platforms to deliver innovative strategies for each of my clients. I’ve led fully integrated, global multi-million dollar, omni-channel campaigns, have website management and product development experience, and even dabbled in business transformation and change management consulting too.Building high performing, diverse and happy teams is a strength.
As a dynamic cross-functional team leader, I’ve led, managed and coached multi-discipline teams across geographies and cultures. I lead with empathy, encouragement, have a player/coach mindset and insist on having fun along the way.
With an entrepreneurial spirit and trusted partner to Senior Executive and C-suite clients, I thrive in fast- paced, collaborative team environments.
When I’m not working, you can probably find me listening to Kara Swisher & Scott Galloway’s technology/business podcast, Pivot, while cooking something from Ina Garten or Half-baked Harvest. I’m a die-hard Green Bay Packers fan by marriage, love all things pop culture, and am always down for a good home improvement project. Living by the ocean, you can often find me on the beach with my husband and very spoiled mini-Goldendoodle dog named Patsy Jones (who could probably double as a muppet). Lastly, while I love to bake, and have a mean carrot cake reciepe, I cannot make a sourdough to save my life. But you can pour me a glass of an earthy, structured Italian red wine and settle in for a great converstation anytime.
