What drives you in your career? I truly love to solve problems which improve connections and results:  alliances, complex sales organization alignment, enabling and communicating priorities. Removing obstacles to growth while improving an organization is very gratifying.

What do you do when you're not at work? As an extreme 'multi-tasker,' I spend time with my teenage daughter and son, garden, hike, read, cook with friends, practice yoga and go dancing whenever possible.

How did you get into consulting and what do you enjoy most about consulting? I met Rich, Todd and Tania when I was evaluating a career change. It was a very easy decision to join this particular firm. I identify with the vision, our collaborative approach and respect for clients and consultants. There is nothing better than a great team and we get to assemble great teams with our clients to solve a business problem. Then we get to move on to the next one. Variety, high energy, intellectual engagement and professional polish. I love Bridge Partners!

What is your funcitonal, business, industry or client expertise/experience? My career experience spans all aspects of high tech sales: hardware, software and services, enterprise systems and cloud. I have enjoyed working for IBM, Microsoft and Siebel Systems as a first and second line manager.  I have industry expertise in Healthcare, Public Sector, High Tech, Financial Services, Aerospace... and Pulp and Paper.

What is the best food you've ever eaten? A fresh tomato picked on a late summer afternoon in Virginia, drizzled with fine balsamic vinager and complemented with fresh snipped dill. A Maine lobster just out of the pot on a beach, accompanied by drawn butter and fresh sea breeze. The first crisp apple of the season. Quiche Lorraine from a street vendor in Nice.
