Growth-stage companies are my specialty
I’m a trusted advisor to early- and growth-stage companies, guiding them as they scale. I develop structured HR and strategic planning practices that also preserve a culture of innovation, inclusion and collaboration.

About Me
I’m a cross-functional leader who has held leadership positions in Marketing, Operations, Technology and Human Resources, so I understand your needs from multiple perspectives.
I’ve worked in different contexts—at mature global organizations such as MetLife, more innovative growth companies like Spotify and privately-held family firms. I’ve managed teams in several industries which allows me to access a variety of approaches and apply what works best for your business.
I’m an innovator who understands how to start something new. I can help launch new functions, programs and products, and take ownership, seeing it through to implementation, either working directly with your team or bringing in my own resources.
I’m a community leader who is passionate about fostering inclusion and building relationships. I was elected to serve on my local School Board for 10 years and was recently reappointed to my second term on NYC Community Board 6. I also serve on the Board of Peter Stuyvesant Little League with responsibility for growing the softball program throughout NYC.
