Brainstorm Your Brand

Personal Brand Examples I help individuals and companies make the most of talent. I work as part of the team. I am a straight shooter who isn’t afraid to have the tough conversations. I also believe that people are more capable and valuable than they often give/get credit for. My method marries the sublime with the systematic—allowing for creativity and change with a strong focus on foundation and implementation.

I am an executive with special skills in strategic planning, team leadership, creative problem solving and analysis. I had twenty years of management experience in the for profit world before changing careers, coming into the nonprofit world and focusing on organization development and community social service. I value creativity, relationships, and celebrating the successes of others.
