Growth-Focused, Compassionate Leader | Amazon, Salesforce, Meta & Dropbox Alum | CHIEF Member | Mom²

I’ve been told “you’re not good enough” more times than I can count.

When I applied to early decision to Cornell, my Chemistry teacher laughed at me. She wasn't wrong - I got rejected. But “no” on a piece of paper wasn’t going to be the final answer. I called the Dean every single day until he finally took my call. He told me why I didn't get in and what I needed to change.

A year later, I walked through the doors as a student.

That moment shaped everything. 
It taught me how to speak up for myself — clearly, directly, and without apology. I've carried that into every role since. 

I’ve sold for and led teams across some of the biggest tech companies in the world, including Salesforce, Meta, Dropbox and Amazon. Along the way, that meant working through messy launches, rebuilding broken processes, coaching struggling reps, and helping leaders navigate growth, conflict, confusion and change.

And like anyone who's lived a full life, there were personal moments that forced me to rethink what leadership actually looks like. Rejection, personal loss, setbacks, and times where everything felt like it was falling apart. Those experiences changed the way I lead. 

Not with ego. Not with pressure.
But with clarity, communication, and being human first. 

Today, I coach sales leaders and partner fractionally with revenue teams who want to perform at a high level - without burning out or leading on autopilot. 

𝗜 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽:
- Sales Leaders who want confidence, clarity, and stronger communication
- Revenue teams who need simple, effective, human-first messaging
- Companies who want fractional support to stabilize, sharpen, or accelerate GTM

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜'𝗺 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗮𝘁: 
Connecting with people. 
Getting to the real issue fast. 
Helping leaders show up with confidence. 
Turning chaos into clarity. 

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲:
Leadership isn't about being the loudest voice. 
Sales isn't about pressure.
People don't need more hustle - they need more clarity. 

If you're a sales leader who wants to grow, a team that needs direction, or a company looking for fractional help... 

𝗟𝗲𝘁'𝘀 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗸.

Can we please stop minimizing the badassery of women?

Yesterday's Gold medal game between Team USA and Team Canada was not deemed "high demand" by Olympic organizers.. 

Let's break this down: 

- This was the 7th time these two have met in an Olympic final. 

- Team USA entered the final game with a 31-1 goal differential. They outscored their opponents by 30 goals across 6 games. 

- One of those 6 games was against Team Canada where they shut them down 5-0. 

- Canada entered the final with a point to prove. Despite the loss in the prelims, they outscored the rest of the world 18-3. 

- And....they were the ONLY team in the entire tournament to hold USA scoreless for more than 2 periods.  In fact, Team USA didn't even find the back of the net until there was just 2:04 left in regulation. 

- The game tying goal was scored by Hilary Knight, making her the all-time leading SCORER in U.S. Olympic history. 

- It took a 3 on 3 sudden-death OT period for it to finally end. 

So, let's recap: 

- The greatest rivalry in hockey
- A record-breaking performance by a legend
- A literal last minute comeback 
- An OT goal to decide it all

If that's not "high demand", then I don't know what is.
