I partnered with companies to develop strategic plans, design organizational structures, create and maintain brands, and support leadership development and team-building initiatives. By serving as an outside CSO and COO, I worked to help create clarity in messaging, organizational design, and leadership. This clarity allows organizations to stay focused through times of transition and fosters a growth mindset.

Through collaboration, we created high-yield campaigns, strategies, and processes. I used data and intuition to determine where to expend energy and resources, leveraging measurable metrics and intangible factors to assess impact and define the path forward.
