Leveraging years of work experience across multiple industries, I help others harness their skills, build connections, and lead through service.

In corporate offices and creative hubs; from on-site event planning to tour management; from new business infrastructure to existing process reviews; from team alignment to communication flow; and from creative content creation to supply chain management—you name it, I have done it, hands on and high level.

When I work with women one-on-one, I leverage my professional experience, personal creative journey, and somatic paradigm to help them access the creativity within and give them the tools to embody their passions. Together, we set up the scaffolding for them to thrive—in everything they do.

I also work with small businesses, sole proprietors and individuals who need top-tier, virtual organizational & operational support on a part time basis to help with: Project Management, Accounts Payable and Receivable, Time Management, Communication, Scheduling, Event Planning, Creative Ideation, and General Administrative Needs.

Between 2014 and 2024, I worked for a manufacturer of returnable, reusable packaging to serve Fortune 100 companies in the Distribution, Automotive and E-Commerce industries and support their supply chain and circular economy needs. Leveraging my out-of-the-box critical thinking, I built consensus across multiple departments and together, we solved problems for our customers and supported the growth and success of the business.

Service Work

Being of service is a core value of mine, and I always look for opportunities to give back and contribute to my community. As a board member of the Economic Development Authority for the City of Winchester, VA, I have the honor to not only help plan and shape the city’s future growth, but also to include equity and sustainability in all the decisions we make. In addition, I frequently give my time and other resources to civic service groups and non-profits such as the Peter Bullough Foundation.

Education

Currently I am studying to be a Somatic Therapist (integrative body psychotherapy) at the Institute of Core Energetics in New York City. Upon completion, I will work with clients one-on-one and in workshops to integrate their inherent creativity, unlock their purpose and support their pursuit of living the life they love.

In 1995, I graduated from the University of Virginia with Distinction with a B.A. in English and German.

In 2000, I graduated from The New School with Distinction with a M.A. in Media Studies. My focus was on Audio and Video production. I wrote, produced and edited several shorts including “Smooth Grief” (about the process of loss and grieving) as both an audio-only and video piece, and “Secret Dance” (about privacy in the age of surveillance) as an audiovisual piece. Before I graduated, I presented a paper titled “Media Literacy: Pushing Participation Towards Change” at the Critical Themes in Media Studies conference in April 2000. You can read it here if you’re interested.

During my academic years and beyond, I have always agitated for social justice. In particular, I have been an advocate and campaigner for women’s rights and body autonomy (I was president of Students for Choice at UVA), abuse survivors and suicide prevention.
