“If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.” Nelson MandelaI am passionate about localization and speaking the client's language. In my ~15 years in the translation and localization sector, I've enhanced global product experience for multiple brands by successfully deploying data-driven strategy and processes, and implementing custom localization software solutions. I created an opportunity to develop and grow language services operation from the ground up to support a portfolio of products generating millions of dollars in revenue. I am a skilled leader that builds high performance/high accountability teams through coaching, professional development and effective performance management.► CAREER JOURNEYMost recently, I served as a Global Director of Language Services at AlphaSights. Since joining the company in 2018, I’ve developed and integrated a transformational operational strategy to support the rapid growth of the company's language services unit, accelerating innovation by engineering a custom software solution to enable production and delivery of the services.Earlier localization industry roles include progressively responsible management positions at Translations.com, aLanguageBank and LIS Solutions.► LEADERSHIP STYLEMy goal is to help develop a new generation of localization industry leaders. I create custom training solutions for new hires and stress the importance of growth mindset from day one. I empower my teams through coaching and mentorship, and have been praised as a strategic and creative thinker and an influential leader. As a working mom, I champion diversity and inclusion in a workplace and have served on a DEI committee as well as founded Parents' Employee Resource Group.► KEY SKILLSLeadership | Talent Development | People Management | Localization | Software Localization | Intercultural Communication | Business Strategy | Language Strategy | Operations Management | P&L Management | Customer Relationship Management | Product Development and Innovation | Product Management
