People centric leadership

Hello


I work with business leaders and goal-oriented individuals who are navigating change, facing decisive choices, and managing uncertainty.

I connect with you to understand your hopes, challenges, and uncertainties in life and in business. As your thought partner, I bring emotional intelligence, leadership experience, and deep business knowledge to understand what you're facing and help you chart a path forward. Together, we align you and your organization, boosting performance as you move forward with clarity and confidence.

What I bring:

  • An athlete’s mindest: I'm an endurance athlete, a pursuit that has helped me achieve goals that once seemed impossible. 

  • Business leadership, growth and turnaround experience: For more than twenty years, I've solved business problems at the intersection of strategy, operations, leadership, and finance. My career path has been varied, spanning regional health systems, PE-backed behavioral health, VC-funded startups, management consulting, investment finance, and global public health. This breadth gives me unique perspectives and helps me bring fresh ideas to solve problems and minimize risk. 

  • Emotional intelligence: I build connections, uncover deeper insights, reduce misunderstandings and de-escalate conflict.

How I work

One-on-one advising: Clarify your needs and priorities and chart a path forward.

Group advising: Build trust, resolve conflict, and improve team perform.

Speaking engagements and workshops: Get aligned and energized on your direction. Topics include self-leadership, goal setting, workforce engagement and communication.

Consulting projects: Custom projects to improve engagement, culture, and operations.
