EXPERIENCE
With 25+ years working at professional services and consulting firms, I bring a track record of managing process analysts and creative teams, working with C-suite executives, and delivering external facing content. My design and visualization talent, coupled with analytical abilities, allows me to architect solutions that are well executed in verbal, written, and visual/digital mediums.
