Our experiences from our past significantly influence the choices we make and the direction our lives take going forward. So, let's step back in time for a moment. Age five to be exact. This is when I started learning how to play piano. I spent countless hours perfecting scales and arpeggios, and practicing a piece of music measure by measure in preparation for the next competition. At high school age, while I continued music, I began to dabble in painting. While I didn’t realize it then, those days shaped my outlook on life and my desire to consistently innovate, create and improve. Everything I approach, I do so with curiosity and imagination. My career has taken me from higher education and non-profits, to luxury retail, the private airline industry and private business clubs. At each, I was given the opportunity to nurture relationships, observe how people feel about an idea or product, and then find ways to enhance their experience. When it comes to details and vision, I am disciplined and unforgiving. When I set out to plan an event, tell a story, or build a human connection, I aim for impact, and I always do it with purpose. My goal is to deliver work that wows – listening, visualizing, collaborating, spotting obstacles, and reimagining and shaping growth along the way.
