My Story

Built from the ground up.

I began my career in the mailroom and earned seven promotions over nearly two decades, progressing through operations leadership, marketing, and enterprise event strategy.

That journey taught me how to understand a business from the inside out: how work gets done, how teams succeed, how leaders communicate, and how thoughtfully designed experiences can create momentum.
