I am a data-driven, transparent leader who values clarity, execution, and informed decision-making. I believe strong organizations are built when strategy, people, and systems are aligned—and when leaders create environments where teams understand both the why and the how behind their work.

I care deeply about customer and employee experience, recognizing that sustainable organizations depend on both. I bring a practical, hands-on mindset to leadership, balancing strategic vision with operational discipline, and I am known for being direct, collaborative, and steady during periods of growth, crisis or change.

While I hold high standards, I believe trust, candor, and a shared sense of purpose create the conditions for teams to do their best work.

My desire to build is deeply rooted in watching my father spend decades building houses—structures designed to last, adapt, and be cared for over time. That experience shaped my understanding that meaningful work requires patience, precision, and a long-term view.

That builder’s mindset is now central to my professional DNA. I am drawn to building teams, systems, venues, and organizations that are thoughtfully designed, well-maintained, and resilient. Whether strengthening infrastructure, developing leaders, or aligning operations with mission, my focus is always on durability—not just growth.

I am a first-generation college graduate and a proud double alumna (‘96 and ‘01G) of the University of New Hampshire. My education and professional journey reinforced the value of access, opportunity, and lifelong learning—principles that continue to shape how I lead and advise others.

I believe in working smarter, not harder. I am continually exploring how analytics, financial modeling, and emerging technologies—including AI—can support better decision-making, more efficient processes, and clearer insight across organizations.

I bring equal respect for analysis and judgment, structure and creativity, recognizing that effective leadership requires both.

Outside of my professional life, I maintain a deep appreciation for music, books, gardening, plants, film, and food. I’m inspired by creative spaces that inform how I think about storytelling, audience engagement, and human connection. I could live for days working in spreadsheets, but much more prefer time in my home or traveling with my husband, children (step and biological), and home-zoo of dogs and cats.
