Strategic Advisory

I partner with founders, CEOs, and investors to scale companies and unlock enterprise value.

I help build the strategic and operational foundation needed for sustainable growth.

Speaking & Facilitation

I speak at conferences, executive offsites, and board events on topics including sustainable growth, governance, ESG, women in leadership, and digital transformation. I also design and facilitate strategic panels, innovation workshops, and leadership dialogues to help organizations shape perspective, spark alignment, and lead forward-thinking conversations.

Let’s Work Together!

Board Leadership & Governance

Serving on public, private, and venture-backed boards, I provide strategic oversight in governance, ESG, risk, and emerging technologies. I also work with CEOs and founders to strengthen board effectiveness, support succession planning, and shape long-term strategy in alignment with company growth and stakeholder priorities.

Executive Engagements

I take on selective interim or fractional executive roles, as well as retained strategic projects, where hands-on leadership is needed to drive growth and transformation. I bring C-suite operating experience across growth, revenue, marketing, team leadership, and general management, stepping in to stabilize leadership, accelerate execution, and lead mission-critical initiatives during critical inflection points.
