Expertise: Experience

My work is rewarding because I partner with people who want to grow and make the changes needed to be more effective leaders.

As a Certified Executive Coach, I have over 15 years of experience helping hundreds of executives seeking to increase their competencies in leadership, communication, collaboration, and influence. Whether they are transitioning to a new role, expanding their responsibilities, leading a larger team, or seeking greater professional fulfillment, I help my clients identify their strengths and gaps enabling them to successfully achieve their desired outcomes. I create trust-based relationships with my clients by combining curiosity and regard for people with a refreshing style and sense of humor.

Clients recognize the value of my corporate experience and successful track record of driving revenue growth.

With over twenty five years of corporate business experience, I have a successful track record of developing in-depth client relationships, designing and building organizations, and driving revenue growth. During my tenure at Young & Rubicam I grew a three-person field operation to a full-service integrated marketing agency with over 150 people working on a range of clients including Taco Bell, PepsiCo, KFC, Ford and Mattel.

I held a variety of leadership positions, including Chief Operating Officer at Young & Rubicam/Irvine. With P+L responsibility, I led a team of 300+ employees that grew revenue over 500%. At Leo Burnett Company, I led cross-functional teams in the development of business building programs, consumer strategy and advertising for Kellogg’s, Kraft, and McDonald’s, the latter of which required building relationships across the client organization at both headquarters and among the franchisee community.
