about


what you need to know about me

1.  I work hard and we reach outcomes. 

2.  If I don’t know something, I admit it and find the answer for you.

3.  I genuinely care for my clients. I wear my heart on my sleeve.

4.  I enjoy Marvel, DC and Bollywood movies, a wacky combination (I know).

5.  I am a lifelong learner, trying to learn something new every day, professional or personal. (FYI, knitting didn't go too well).

6.  I love drawing theoretical models, particularly on napkins and scratch paper.

7.  I encourage clients to practice a superhero pose before major meetings or interviews. Helps build confidence.

8. The more complex the problem, the more excited I get.

9.  I enjoy hopping industries.  I relish the challenge of learning a new business model and culture.

10.  My favorite quote is a Polish Proverb - "not my circus, not my monkeys".
