About Me

Whether leading large-scale transformations or building inclusive talent strategies, I translate business strategy, uncertainty and complexity into actionable, people-first, future-ready solutions rooted in clarity, accountability, purpose and care.

I received my bachelors from Purdue University (Lafayette, IN) with a concentration in Strategic Business Management. I have a Master’s in Learning & Organizational Change Management (I/O Psychology) from Northwestern University (Evanston, IL) which underpins my approach to organization design and development through a people science and behavioral economics lens.
