Leaders are capable of making a positive difference. They need to open their minds to seeing things through a different lens and have the courage to question their own assumptions.
I thrive on tackling tough challenges while at the same time giving my clients the peace of mind knowing that I’m always in it with them. I’m not afraid to help my clients see their role in taking action on a solution, and to help them move from where they are to where they need to be. I listen well, focus on doing great work, and have the humility to know that l don’t always have the answer, but I do know how to get to a solution.
I love spending time with my husband, Olaf, and our two kids. We like to travel a lot as a family, and hope to visit every continent someday. I also enjoy being in our backyard with friends, and exploring Portland’s amazing food scene.
A few clients I’ve had the pleasure of working with:
- Travel Oregon
- Los Angeles Tourism and Convention Board
- Aflac
- Portland State University
- Greenbrier
