About

After earning my MBA, I spent six years of my career as a management consultant, immersed in the world of business transformation. I was hooked! Since then, I've taken on leadership roles at several Fortune 500 companies with a focus on helping launch and lead change programs of all shapes and sizes. Through it all, I've learned that the keys to success in any change program lie with the people involved and the culture that supports them.
