Development Leader with Business Credibility

With over 20 years of experience leading product, strategy, and customer engagement initiatives, I’ve lived the challenges that today’s employees and managers face. That experience gives me a unique advantage: I understand how to build talent development solutions that solve real problems and drive meaningful change.

I’ve led cross-functional teams, launched products and digital solutions, and navigated organizational change. Now, I bring that same strategic mindset into the people space—designing leadership development, talent planning, and engagement strategies that align directly with business goals. I think in outcomes. I speak the language of the business. And I understand that time and attention are limited, so learning must be relevant, actionable, and built for the real world.

Why having an L&D Partner with Business Experience Matters:

  • Business-Aligned Strategic Thinking

    As someone who has managed a P&L and been responsible for key deliverables, I don’t just “build trainng” - I create development strategies that support the organization’s goals

  • Influence & Communication

    My success in product and customer-focused roles demonstrates thea bility to drive alignment across stakeholders - a key skill in L&D wher buy-in is everything.

  • Data-Driven Problem Solving

    What should we know about the services you provide? Better descriptions result in more sales.

  • Platinum

Learning and development isn’t just my job – it’s my highest core value and how I spend my free time, my energy, and my creative focus.

I’m not only an L&D professional—I’m a practitioner. I live and breathe growth, not only by designing programs, but by continuously learning myself. Whether it's through podcasting, volunteering, or video production, I turn insight into action—for myself and for others.
