About

After a 40+ year career with Kimberly-Clark supporting finance and operations teams in N. America, Asia/Pacific, Latin America and EMEA, I retired in 2022. A huge thank you to the thousands of dedicated and talented KCers who made this experience so rewarding and meaningful! I'm now open to new volunteer and consulting arrangements for the next phase of my life.
