About

I've built high performance teams as an operational executive for B2B SaaS (private equity-backed). Now: unblocking team's everywhere and enabling them to operate at their FULL potential. The meeting tax reduces your org's capacity by >45%*. There's a better way to spend your time and stop meeting burnout + overload. Key achievements from my scale-up career include: 1. Co-led company split and exit via two strategic acquisitions 2. Increased the number of client launches per month by 3X 3. Drove 1.5X higher product adoption while cutting time-to-adopt by 50% Talk to me about ... entrepreneurship, giving back, tech disruption, growing and empowering talent, innovation in any shape or form, social responsibility, women in tech, and collaborative learning. * 45% of meetings "could've been skipped" as per Dr. Steven Rogelberg's scientific research.
