Tenacious. Ambitious. Passionate. I get things done. There’s never an excuse for missing the mark in my professional universe. If someone says “we can’t”, I get us to “we can.” I never identify a problem without offering 10 solutions, and I love finding the answer that takes us to the next level.
An eclectic portfolio in startups, non-profits, government, and education has molded me into a bonafide jill of all trades. I facilitate success for my clients and my company through excellent customer service, obsessive attention to detail, leading by example, and sparkling wit.
I want to change the way we work. I spend my day identifying how best to enhance our brand new collaborative workspace in SF’s Central Market district; how to invigorate the local business community; and supporting the dreams of over 300 inspiring entrepreneurs.
