I am a senior marketing leader with over 20 years of experience driving growth and innovation in technology and SaaS at Microsoft and McKinsey.

I spent over a decade at Microsoft in senior product and growth marketing roles, where I led marketing organizations accountable for multi-billion-dollar portfolios. I managed growth strategies that consistently accelerated both new and mature businesses, driving AI and productivity solutions to deliver 15%+ growth on a $15B SMB run rate. Earlier in my career at McKinsey, I co-authored landmark research on big data and cloud technologies that shaped perspectives at Fortune 500 companies and even the White House.

At Microsoft, I spearheaded the category creation and go-to-market strategy for Microsoft Viva, achieving 87% brand awareness within two years and being recognized as a Fast Company Top 3 Innovative Company. I launched and scaled this new offering to $100M+ revenue with more than 1,000 enterprise customers and 20M+ monthly active users. I also transformed flat-growth mature products like Visio and Project into sustained growth engines through strategic repositioning.

As a coach, I work with aspiring and emerging leaders—especially those who may not see themselves as the stereotypical extroverted leader—to build confidence, create clarity, and deliver results. Drawing from my journey as an introverted marketing executive, I believe leadership skills are learnable and can unlock both personal authenticity and organizational impact.

Clients say I bring a thoughtful, empathetic, and strategic presence. They leave our sessions not just with clarity, but with the confidence and practical tools to navigate complex situations, inspire their teams, and grow into leaders who generate results while staying true to their own style.

When I'm not coaching, I enjoy hiking in the Pacific Northwest and exploring global cuisines. These passions fuel my curiosity and energy and often spark deeper connections with the leaders I work with.
