About
What I do best:
- From working in 25+ countries and with international organizations, I bring a global perspective and a unique understanding of how to evaluate and pursue new opportunities.
- From my entrepreneurial experience I’ve got grit, work ethic galore and an ability to manage and take calculated risks.
- From running a media company, I know how to craft the right messages and deliver them to the right people at the right time to achieve the best impact.
- I have experience in government relations, new market exploration, communications, operations, strategy and marketing.
What I’m passionate about:
- Angel Investing – I'm a Managing Partner of a Women's Angel Fund focused on improving access to financing for female founders and increasing the number of women investors.
- Entrepreneurship – starting a business is the best business experience – I advise on launching and growing companies – involved in a start-up? Maybe I can help.
When I’m not working, you’ll find me:
- Brainstorming business ideas with my kids – they are working on their 3rd venture.
- Dreaming up screenplays for comedy movies.
- Travelling, travelling and more travelling.
