𝗘𝗠𝗣𝗢𝗪𝗘𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗛𝗨𝗠𝗔𝗡 & 𝗕𝗨𝗦𝗜𝗡𝗘𝗦𝗦 𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗪𝗧𝗛I've been a growth-minded, strategic marketer my entire career. I’ve served on the client side and in agency leadership roles. I deliver top- and bottom-line gains, champion bold and effective creative ideas, and develop exceptional talent. My experience spans B2C, B2B, CRM, Data, public relations, business development, partnerships, digital, and social.I’ve been in the spotlight but am equally comfortable operating behind the scenes. I enjoy advising a CEO as much as I do mentoring a young professional or startup. I’ve got a healthy amount of professional ambition, with decades of lived experience that helps me keep it in perspective.I'm a strong advocate for compassionate leadership, writing and speaking about it often. My 2019 LinkedIn essay imploring people to stop apologizing for “having lives” went viral around the globe.I'm currently Omnicom's global client lead for McDonald's.I’ve previously held leadership positions at Nokia, Sony Music, Ogilvy & Mather, Razorfish, Publicis Hawkeye, and Wunderman Thompson. Most recently as the North American CEO for Iris, I’ve led a regional restructuring, consolidating six disconnected offices into a single North American P&L and operating model. When I’m not working, I try to keep up with my teenage boys and dog, read anything I can find on Muhammad Ali/Carl Sagan/big wave surfing, chase fresh powder in the Rockies, or run a few miles on the Chicago lakefront in preparation for my next marathon.Finally, I believe that people are inherently decent. Let's not let each other down, okay?
