What Connects It All

Although my titles and industries have evolved, the underlying work has remained remarkably consistent: bring people and information together, create structure around complexity, and move projects forward.

My experience spans project management, executive programs, events, operations, client relationships, creative production, research, and process improvement. Across each, I’ve worked with senior leaders, clients, partners, vendors, and cross-functional teams to turn ideas and requirements into coordinated, tangible outcomes.

I bring a combination of structured execution, thoughtful relationship-building, curiosity, and creative problem-solving, with the ability to stay calm and practical when plans inevitably change.
