About Me

I provide strategic, "wow-we-did-that?" initiatives that help leaders, teams, & organizations enhance performance through design thinking stacked with improv techniques. Get ready to be comfortable with the uncomfortable. Half design facilitator. Half strategic advisor. Half improviser = 3 halves!! Every project has stories to tell—stories that will not only engage, inform and impact their audience, but that will also deliver on measurable business goals. I am that conduit between the C-Suite and the project teams. I help clients find the strategy and approach that best fits their unique identity, and then I implement and deliver top-level results that meets their objectives. Currently, I am the Head of Strategic Sourcing for Upstart. My specialties include strategic sourcing,design thinking, business strategy, user experience design, corporate development, change management, operations improvement, business development, source to pay and P2P transformations.
