I care deeply about how people thrive at work—how they grow, connect, and contribute in meaningful ways. At the core, I believe in a growth mindset, genuine collaboration, and using our work to create a positive impact. As a consultant, trainer, and coach, my primary focus is ensuring leaders are equipped to meet today’s workforce challenges. I achieve this through a combination of individual coaching, team alignment, defining clear success measures, and developing practical strategies.

I bring more than 25 years of experience in human resources consulting, having worked with large global firms like Deloitte and Willis Towers Watson as well as boutique consultancies focused on international HR. Throughout my career, I’ve helped individuals and teams clarify what they want to achieve, spot the obstacles in their way, and build a clear, practical path forward. In global organizations, this has meant supporting leaders as they develop the self-awareness and cultural agility needed to work effectively across diverse teams and regions.

In my corporate career, I served as the strategic compensation leader for Kohler Company outside the United States before moving into a talent leadership role focused on change management, organizational effectiveness, employee engagement, and global leadership development. Before Kohler, I was a senior global HR leader at Jones Lang LaSalle, where I led employee engagement and global mobility programs for the organization.

When I'm not consulting, I am teaching at Purdue University Northwest as an Assistant Professor in the College of Business. My classes include Leadership, Business Ethics, Nonprofit Management, International Business, and Introduction to Organizational Behavior. I am also a certified assessor of the Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI) and a certified Adult Mental Health First Aid provider.

I have my PhD in International Psychology from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology with a specialization in organizations and systems. My Masters of Public and International Affairs with a concentration in Human Security Studies is from the University of Pittsburgh, and a Bachelor’s degree with a double major in Political Science and International Relations from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
