Introduction

From the early days of my career in public service and hospitality to leading organizations across different sectors, I’ve been drawn to environments where service, operations, and people intersect. I’m motivated by roles where I bring the best of myself and can contribute meaningfully in dynamic and changing contexts. My focus is on building trusted, high-performing teams where shared responsibility leads to sustainable results. My leadership approach is based on collective strength, resilience, and purpose. I aim to balance pacing and leading, helping teams move forward while mentoring others. For me, effective leadership is about being thoughtful, confident, and adaptable, and staying curious and connected along the way. Outside of business, I fuel my leadership from my personal interests, which help me approach challenges creatively and maintain flexibility. I enjoy bringing an energetic vibe and I’m committed to supporting women in leadership and technology, reflecting my belief in inclusive, forward-looking leadership. My experience spans organizational transformation, corporate resilience, stakeholder management, and advising executive leaders, with a strong focus on digitization and meaningful societal impact.
