Collaborative
I help individuals and organizations unleash their potential to color outside the lines, to tell compelling stories, and to effect meaningful change in the lives of people and their communities.
curiosity, creativity, and collaboration are like air, water, and food.
I have led teams in B2B/B2C brand and marketing consulting, technology, financial services, higher education, and more.
The teams I lead do exceptional work that gets results — and have fun doing it together.
I lead through creative collaboration, broker win-win relationships between diverse and opposing viewpoints, and deliver keen insight as both an employee consultant.
I have produced almost every kind of communication possible using every medium available.
