My passion is leading and serving project and leadership teams to deliver major change. Prior to being part of Authentic Connections, I spent 22 years as a management consultant and program manager at Deloitte Consulting and Interaction Associates, and 6 years consulting inside at Intuit. I joined Authentic Connections to get to work with Hanley and Saara again… a great team. I also get to help organizations implement their strategic plans in ways that engage leaders and employees, so that they deliver great results that stick.

What is important to understand about how I approach my work is that I bring organization development depth and program management rigor. The organization development depth helps me assess the systemic dynamics, engage people in focusing on the key leverage points and coach individuals and teams to help them play from their strengths and work through barriers to success. The program management rigor ensures that the decisions that get made are then grounded in realistic plans with measurable milestones / deliverables, clear accountability and follow-through. If you want to learn more about what this involves, check out “Making the Vision Real” in Knowledge Directions.

With all that said, I received my B.S. from Brown University and my MBA from University of California, Berkeley (where I still live). When not working, you will find me traveling and backpacking, then sharing my favorite few photos from each trip.
