About

I help organizations navigate growth, transformation, and change. My experience spans GTM strategy, business operations, executive leadership, and organizational effectiveness. Throughout my career, I have partnered with senior executives to translate strategy into execution, align cross-functional teams around shared objectives, and build scalable operating models that drive business impact. I am particularly energized by ambiguous, high-impact challenges that require structure, change management, and stakeholder alignment. Whether launching global initiatives, redesigning operating rhythms, driving GTM transformation, improving organizational communication, or leading strategic programs, I work backward from desired outcomes and build the systems, processes, and partnerships needed to achieve them. Over the course of my career, I have supported leadership teams at both high-growth and public technology companies, helping organizations scale through periods of rapid growth, transformation, and market change.
