Profile

Professional summary

I synthesize design, storytelling and organizational change management to help companies imagine new possibilities, break out of traditional problem-solving paradigms and employ creative approaches to their most pressing business challenges.

Currently, I am pursuing a graduate degree in Media Design Practices at Art Center College of Design, a program that emphasizes new media technology, innovation and community engagement through participatory models.

Specialties: Cross-Functional Planning, Strategy, Storytelling, Design, Change Management, Strategy Execution, Employee Engagement, Executive and Internal Communications, Leadership, Corporate Culture, Business Transformations, Mergers & Acquisitions, Brand Activation and Internal Branding

Engagement overview

I structure engagements based on clients' needs. For some, that means working on a specific deliverable (e.g. change strategy and plan); for others it means engaging me for the life of a project (M&A); still for others, it means staffing a full-time position as they look for a permanent hire. Usually, I bill for time and expenses, but I'm also open to retainer and fee-for-deliverable structures.
