I am a People Operations leader with more than 20 years of experience leading organizational transformation, driving change, and reinventing the way companies work. My experience spans both in-house executive leadership and global consulting, across PE-backed, VC-backed, and professional services companies in industries including healthcare, energy, logistics, and hospitality. That work has encompassed org design, culture and change, and HR transformation, including the emerging influence of AI on the workplace. I hold an MBA from Yale and am ICF credentialed and Hogan certified.

Twice I have led the people function, as VP of People at Industrious, a late-stage startup, and as Chief People Officer at Isaacson, Miller, a mature professional services firm navigating change. As VP of Change, Communications, Culture, and Engagement at Neovia Logistics, I articulated and activated the strategy, vision, and culture for an logistics and distribution company with locations in 20 countries to help the organization compete and succeed in a challenging market following its spinoff from Caterpillar. I also designed and led the change strategy for Dell's $60B enterprise transformation from computer manufacturer to IT solutions provider. As a consultant at Mercer and Korn Ferry, I helped numerous organizations reshape their structures, cultures, and workforces for what comes next. I also co-led the HR Effectiveness practice, helping CHROs and Chief People Officers assess, redesign, and optimize their functions and service delivery. I am a builder and fixer, and my work spans strategy through execution and enablement.

As a coach, I work with leaders who are driving transformation, stepping into new roles, navigating stakeholder management challenges, or facing stress and conflict at work. I bring a steady presence, and a quip when the moment calls for one. My role is to help you embrace and honor who you are and whatever you are facing, while still challenging you.

Clients tell me I have helped them feel better and break through.

Outside of work, I mentor early-stage ventures, love live music, sweat through HIIT workouts, and listen to podcasts at 2x, because I have so much I want to learn and not enough time. I have spent a decade as a crisis intervention volunteer, giving me a depth of compassion for the struggles people face. I also crush it at pub quiz, unless the subject is pop culture.
