Summary

I am passionate about personal development and lifelong learning. Throughout my tenure at The Trium Group, Levi Strauss & Co and Apple Inc., I have focused on empowering my teams, colleagues, and partners to operate at peak performance using my superpowers around organization, simplification, and planning. In my spare time, I like to travel and sight-see, learn new languages, take golf lessons from my husband, and spoil my dog.
