Involvement…
… Is something very important to me, and I am active in Industry, Community, Entrepreneurship, the Arts and Education.
I have a passion for entrepreneurship and I give back with my time, books and writing, networking and board work. As a board member, advisor, and philanthropist, you will find me actively involved in my community, working with business founders and owners.
Below are my active roles where I work closely with leadership as a board director to increase results by unleashing the potential of their talent. I serve as thought provocateur, pragmatic sherpa/guide and empathetic adviser to senior management.
I have supported women entrepreneurs throughout my board initiatives and my career. As the business world continue to evolve, I’m excited to do more.
