Investing in your team yields the best results
I partner with mission-driven startups and small to medium sized businesses to cultivate intentional culture and implement effective business processes for sustainable growth and success.
I am a former small business owner who built a successful 75 person creative agency that was sold to Salesforce in 2017.
I've worked with hundreds of companies including Chipotle Mexican Grill, Chez Panisse Foundation, Starbucks, The Gap, Center for American Progress, HP, IBM, The Melt, MOD Pizza, and Fyto. I love working with teams who are solving meaningful problems especially the food and agriculture space.
