I build brands that sell every day. I turn complex categories into clear choices and design systems that lift usage, loyalty, and revenue. I’ve led growth across Amazon, Teladoc, and Abbott, so I know how to move from slideware to daily execution. We’ll set a focused 90-day plan, measure what matters, and make smart trade-offs that stick

An influential marketing and business leader whose career spans three decades across healthcare, technology, and consumer brands. She delivers keynotes and workshops on AI for business leaders, healthcare innovation, and the future of technology-driven growth.

I invest as an early-stage angel in healthcare, agetech, and AI. I pressure test the thesis, map the first ten customers, and sharpen the story investors believe. I help founders focus on one wedge, one metric, and one repeatable motion. The aim is proof fast, not noise.

I bring a practical lens to growth, risk, and reputation. I’m strong on tech and AI, grounded in customer trust. As President of the Kellogg DFW Alumni Club and an advisor to AI-driven ventures, I balance innovation with real guardrails. I’m open to one paid board seat where I can add value on strategy, tech oversight, and brand risk.
