ABOUT ME
I am an experienced talent strategy & operations consultant with 12+ years experience in organizational strategy & design, learning & development, talent engagement & management, compensation, brand strategy and visual design, & technology implementations. while I focus on the technology industry I have experience across energy & resources, healthcare, public sector, and consumer products. Prior to my consulting career, I led a non-profit for 4+ years.
Currently, I am a Director at Gartner Consulting focused on transforming clients talent strategies utilizing human-centered design methodologies. In this role I am responsible for relationship management, engagement leadership, pipeline growth, team member & practice development.
Before Gartner, I launched my consulting career at Deloitte Consulting as a Business Technology Analyst. During my time, I lead initiatives that supported the adoption of technology through large system implementation projects. I later joined the Deloitte University Center for Community Impact as a Program Leader responsible for the user-experience, methodology, brand, and facilitation of Wicked Problems - a design thinking experience focused on teaching the principles of design thinking through solving major social issues. After Deloitte University, I returned to client service where I partnered with global companies to develop organizational and talent engagement strategies. Outside of my client work, I was a member of the National Organizational Design Leadership Team and worked to strengthen the culture of inclusion through the concept of uncovering talent.
Before Deloitte, I founded the Chicago Red Dress Party - an organization dedicated to raising awareness for HIV/AIDS. I also directed the Seattle March for Marriage Equality for which I was honored the Marsha Botzer Advocacy Award, Flying House Productions Cowardly Lion Award, and SOaP’s “Heros In Our Community” award.
Outside of my professional endeavors, I’m an avid slalom skier, alpine skier, cyclist, sailor, and DIYer. Much of my free time is spent around water, traveling, or designing and building projects!
Program Design and Lead
Deloitte wanted to provide their professionals new ways to present and tackle challenges with their clients. So, we launched Wicked Problems. A platform that introduced design thinking principles while tackling some of the world’s toughest social issues (i.e. teen bullying or mental health). Once sessions were complete we partnered with non-profits in the space to provide and implement some of the ideas generated during our session.
