I've navigated organizations through crisis, strategic planning and built high-performing teams with minimal resources. I've built my reputation on being an innovative problem solver, while building strong collaboration across community leaders and all levels of government.

I also have demonstrated success securing over $700,000 in grants and funding, as well as economic development, and specialized in business improvement area (BIA) management with proven ability to deliver complex, multi-stakeholder projects. In addition, I'm also an expert spokesperson and public speaker having delivered hundreds of media interviews and public speaking engagements.
