Always curious, creative and innovative, I like the challenge of building new products, markets, brands and businesses. My learning agility, strategic versatility and collaborative style enable me to engage experts, analyze data and synthesize disparate research into business insights and new ideas. Through clear direction, thoughtful coaching and open communication, my teams are set up for success.I am a strategic marketing leader with 20 years of brand, consumer behavior and product experience in consumer technology and social enterprises. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with and learning from the visionaries and talent of Silicon Valley.My experience spans strategy and branding, business planning, PR/AR, product marketing, integrated marketing, ecommerce and nonprofit management. I have demonstrable success integrating the tools of marketing to build both brands and revenue. As the first VP of Marketing and eCommerce for Speck Products (mobile accessories), I built a global team of 21 marketing/creative professionals and 10 agencies. At a venture-funded start-up, I defined the product/service requirements, tablet user experience & go-to-market plan for a tablet & digital content ecosystem. At Apple, I was a marketing leader on numerous intrapreneurial product, market and retail channel initiatives.My sweet-spot is guiding cross functional teams on developing and marketing innovative products, programs and services in emerging and growing markets. I am equally adept at both strategy and execution and I enjoy fast-paced, entrepreneurial environments with creative, out-of-the-box thinkers. I am a world-class listener, capable of synthesizing consumer research, analytics, and market data to drive brand awareness and business growth. After 8 years at Apple, I have a deep appreciation for great user experience and elegant product design while maintaining focus on the need to deliver value and delight to the customer or target community.
