I am your Strategic Connector!
After 10+ years of navigating Corporate America— from Big 4 Consulting to leading national recruiting and talent strategies— I’ve learned one thing. Real progress happens when preparation meets opportunity.
My work now lives at that intersection. Through TDC, I help employers and schools design intentional partnerships that close the gap between education and industry. Whether it’s shaping early- talent pipelines, aligning career readiness programming, or reimagining recruiting frameworks, I bring both sides to the table to build what actually works.
Every solution I design is rooted in clarity, culture, and connection because sustainable growth doesn’t happen by accident. It happens by design!
On a personal note…
I love to travel, dance, swim and laugh
