Work With Me

My life has been a master class in tackling and solving problems.

My 20-year career on Wall Street, with world-class companies like JP Morgan Chase, Citigroup and Merrill, gave me the runway to put my high-level problem-solving skills to work: leading multimillion-dollar project programs, developing award-winning products and managing high-performing teams.

Along the way, I took care of a host of personal challenges like career letdowns, health scares and the delicate balance between work and motherhood.

I know ANY problem or setback can be overcome using logic, creativity and persistence.

My Clients

My clients are businesses of any size who need superior program management expertise for day-to-day or strategic projects across their business operations, marketing or technology functions. In addition, I help these organizations evaluate their current operations and identify opportunities for improvement which maximize operational efficiency and reduce overhead.

Just starting out? I guide entrepreneurs who need a hand building their operational roadmaps, go-to-market plans, investor pitches and business plans. Meet your outsourced COO!

Don’t DIY

You may be thinking, I have the people to get the work done. I can fix my own operational issues. I can run my own projects. Can you? Of course you can! The question is, should you?

Having my expertise at your disposal frees you from working in the weeds.

I will be your hands-on operator and your fixer while you focus on your vision and your goals.
