I've had a curvy career! My degrees are in Accounting and General Management yet I spent my career in completely different fields — mainly Human Resources and Corporate Sustainability. I worked at Oracle when it was small and joined Gap when it was going through crazy expansion in the 90s. Throughout it all, passion was my guide. I did work that I loved, and I worked with people and companies that I respected and admired.
Now I’m doing something new — creating the Career Curves podcast with people I respect and admire (see the pattern?).
Favorite career-related advice: “Misery is optional.” If you find yourself in a miserable situation, do something about it. If you’re feeling defensive, play offense!
Listen to the July 2019 episode of Career Curves to learn more about me.

I've had a curvy career! After college, I worked as lawyer, quit after a year, and went into Human Resources. I then went back-and-forth between working inside major companies (Gap, Apple, Microsoft and Tesla) and working as an independent consultant. I’ve changed industries (retail and tech) and changed my focus (sales, manufacturing, leadership).
My current passion is helping others be their best self which is why I jumped into the Career Curves podcast and made this my latest curve.
Favorite career-related quote: “Kids, be free. Be whoever you want to be. Do whatever you want to do, just so long as you don’t hurt anybody.” It’s from the musical Hair.
My full story is on the Jan 2020 episode of Career Curves.
