I am here to transform PMI Southwest Ohio Chapter into the best version of itself. I act as a trusted advisor and executive-level consultant for process improvement and change management in all areas of a business. Using the Lean Six Sigma method, I help create high-performance teams with a strong connection to an organization’s strategic vision. I bring all this together with an emphasis on execution. After all, without execution, it’s a dream, not a vision. I am a coach in both Scaling Up and the Great Game of Business. I strive to embody the servant leadership model. My specialties include software engineering, training & development, selling best practices, business systems analysis, and setting KPIs & dashboards.

I am currently the Auction Operations Coordinator at Cowan's Auction, a Hindman Company. Before joining the Cowan's, I worked in several museums in different roles -- The Cincinnati Art Museum, Minnetrista and The David Owsley Museum of Art -- through the culmination of all of these experiences, I have been able to see museum work from the ground up, and take part in many different projects throughout the museum. This has facilitated my love of history and art, and bringing them to the public. In February 2019 I became a Certified Project Management Professional (PMP). This certification enabled me to expand my horizons and receive training through the PMI Southwest Ohio Chapter. Through the continual work of maintaining this certification with volunteering, education, and meetings with other professionals, I will ensure that I remain active in my field.
