My path was anything but linear, and I was lucky to work alongside brilliant people who let me experiment, stumble, and try again.
I started out at New York Life, writing for two executives competing to become CEO. Riding the corporate jet, sitting in their meetings, and preparing materials for the Board was my real-life MBA.
At CBS, I grew from financial speechwriter to VP of Marketing Communications, helping launch global hits like The Big Bang Theory, support national treasures like 60 Minutes, and celebrate milestones like Super Bowl 50. My proudest work, though, was mentoring dozens of early-career professionals, many of whom now lead teams of their own. I've also consulted for TikTok, Scripps, and Paramount.
At Google, I founded the AI Think Tank, where salespeople learned tools like Gemini and Veo by playing with them in a psychologically safe space. It showed me how culture makes or breaks creativity. Great creative work comes from nonlinear leaps and the freedom to fail. That kind of culture can't be mandated. It's co-created by people who trust each other and share a vision.
At NYU Tisch School of the Arts, I bring working professionals into the room, many of them Tisch alumni, and we work on real campaigns, not hypotheticals. Students leave knowing how creative work finds an audience, and who can help them get seen and hired.
At the Rutgers Graduate School of Education, my doctoral research explores how compassion practices and embodied knowledge can support learning.
I've spent decades watching artists, executives, and creative people at work, and my practice as a yoga teacher and meditation coach has taught me the same thing: presence is a skill you build, and it's often where creative breakthroughs begin.
As AI takes on more of the busywork, I help students, writers, and working professionals stay curious, focused, present, and in charge of their own thinking.
Writing, frameworks, and programs where human insight meets systemic change — brought to life through facilitation, bespoke classes, and custom programs for executive teams and practitioners across domains.

Connecting with educators, executives, and changemakers navigating the intersection of technology, learning, and leadership.
I partner with organizations, schools, and nonprofits to build the critical thinking and creative skills people need to find signal in the noise. My work includes:
For organizations navigating AI integration. I help leadership teams set direction, align people across functions, and build the kind of culture where new tools actually get used — one co-created by people who trust each other and share a vision.
