Chief People Officer | Keynote Speaker | Brand Partner I Start-Up Advisor (@When Insurance, @CandorIQ, @Kindred Minds and @Klaar) 🏳🌈
MY APPROACH: I think like a business leader first, people leader second. Whether it's supporting WeWork's scale to $2B revenue, navigating Citi through the 2008 crisis, or driving Control Risks' multi-national expansion—I partner with CEOs and executive teams to solve business challenges through strategic talent decisions. TRANSITION FOCUS: After building expertise as a Fractional Chief People Officer with multiple early stage and high-growth startups, I'm ready to return to full-time executive leadership where I can drive long-term strategic impact within a single organization. Actively seeking Chief People Officer, SVP/VP, or Senior People Leadership roles with growth-focused companies ready for their next phase of scaling.
