About me
While I will always be a Chicagoan at heart, my career and passion have taken me across the globe. I am an international professional committed to creating meaningful, positive change, and it is my mission to ensure my work always aligns with purpose and impact.
For over a decade, I have served with the Kennedy family’s organization, Best Buddies International, helping to create inclusive opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. This work has been both a privilege and an adventure, bringing me to more than 30 countries and allowing me to witness the power of inclusion on a global scale.
Since earning my Executive MBA from IE Business School in Madrid, I have launched my own company, WomenWise, and consulted for a range of global NGOs and tech start-ups.
I embrace lifelong learning and continuously seek out new skills and experiences—most recently exploring French, yoga, website design, and gardening.
