My mission is to create a more productive, connected, and joyful world.
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
AND EXPERTISE
Strategic communication, growth, and innovation.
I am a cross-functional executive who facilitates intentional change and growth.
For nearly 30 years, I have used intelligent questions and hard data to tame clients’ thorniest, most strategic challenges—such as how to adopt transformational technologies, adapt to changes in leadership, and align teams at scale. Organizations have put my skills to use to improve results across sales, marketing, employee engagement and development, recruiting, leadership, and change management.
My cross-functional experience and deep expertise in communication has proven a powerful combination for start-ups and enterprises alike.

MY PASSION PROJECT
Comfort Communications helps teams normalize grief and provide predictable, consistent, and effective support to bereaved colleagues. This is my passion project.
Comfort is a simple protocol that people can reference to know what to say and what to do for a grieving coworker.
I cofounded Comfort because after losing my daughter, my team really struggled to be there for me, despite their best efforts. A few years later when I returned to find out what the gap had been, it became clear that most available tools were for the bereaved, not the team—and what resources were available, like empathy training, often weren’t timely enough. When I looked the impact of grief on organizations, I was shocked at how significant the cost was.
Our team’s goal is to make Comfort a ubiquitous part of every organization’s employee support program.

You Happened, How to Self-Destruct, & Super Staying Power
“You Happened” is an art collection I created to help process the loss of my daughter, Elle. Some of these pieces have been shown in both digital and physical exhibits. The piece Starting Stats even won “Director’s Choice” in a juried competition. Experience a curated selection of pieces here.
I’ve also published two career books, Super Staying Power and the award-winning How to Self-Destruct. Both are available at Amazon.
