What I'm looking for

I seek strategic roles where I can lead change, align CSR/DEI with business goals, coach leaders, and deliver measurable impact in mission-driven organizations.

I am a seasoned change management and corporate community investment strategist with over a decade of experience leading organizational transformation, HR consulting, DEI initiatives, and workforce transitions across public, private, and nonprofit sectors. I design and execute change frameworks, stakeholder engagement plans, and training programs that drive adoption, reduce risk, and deliver measurable ROI.

As an entrepreneur and consultant, I have led enterprise-level programs, negotiated complex labor and relocation outcomes, scaled a Black woman‑owned winery, and contributed to major IT and people transformations at global firms, consistently improving operational performance, employee satisfaction, and revenue growth.
