About Me

I help principled leaders achieve breakthrough growth grounded in what makes their organization remarkable.

I bring 20+ years of experience bridging my business world superpowers into the unique demands of the social sector to help unleash the potential of every organization and team I work with. I specialize in transforming underutilized marketing and strategic communications functions into high-performing teams that drive meaningful growth at scale.

My career has consistently landed me in complex social industries including energy, water, climate change, education, public health, and sustainable development. I’m a collaborative, strengths-based leader fiercely committed to bring out the best in my team, and to articulate and activate what’s remarkable for every organization I work with. I’m an unapologetic champion of stakeholder voice, authenticity, and accessibility, aiming to forever change how engagement gets done.

In my free time, you'll usually find me devouring a book, stretching my creative writing muscles, or exploring in the mountains on foot or bike.

THINGS I THINK ABOUT:
 
TRANSFORMATION. What are the ingredients that spark moments of transformation? Where barriers to trust dissolve, or disparate groups find common ground? Or where the innate potential of an organization is unleashed? 
 
EMPOWERMENT. The era of experts imposing solutions to those ‘less fortunate’ is over. For every problem, how do we empower those closest to it to play a meaningful role in its solution? 
 
WHO'S AT THE TABLE. The more diverse the perspectives available to us, the richer our world. How can we own our biases, invite diversity, eliminate barriers to participation, and cede power so true inclusion is the norm rather than the exception?
 
SCALE. I geek out on the interrelationship between scaling innovative ideas and the long-term impact of disruption. How do we balance our eagerness to solve wicked problems fast, and our responsibility to the unintended consequences of big, bold ideas?
