A spark ignited early in my career, revealing my true north: to lead, to inspire, to build exceptional teams.

My professional journey commenced in 2012 as an editorial intern, where I quickly identified a profound passion for guiding and empowering teams to achieve exceptional outcomes within the technology sector.

Operating across diverse organizational cultures, I have consistently been inspired by leaders who not only drive successful team results but also possess the acumen to deeply understand and cultivate the unique strengths of each individual contributor. This philosophy has profoundly shaped my own leadership approach. My leadership experience spans managing dynamic teams of varying sizes, from intimate groups of 1-2 to larger units exceeding 15+ contributors. These teams have encompassed a broad spectrum of expertise, including digital production specialists, senior project managers, and photography managers, each requiring tailored guidance and strategic oversight.

My unwavering leadership philosophy centers on a clear vision: to exemplify dedication and integrity, cultivate environments built on transparency and mutual trust, and champion a culture of continuous growth through proactive feedback exchange. This approach not only accelerates individual development but also consistently achieves critical business objectives. Further solidifying my commitment to effective leadership, I hold a certification in People Management from the University of Toronto Continuing Studies.

I actively extend this dedication through formal and informal mentorship, guiding both internal colleagues and external professionals in their career advancement. Leveraging my background in both product and project management, I apply crucial lessons and best practices to meticulously cultivate and sustain exceptional team health among my direct and skip-level reports. This strategic integration ensures resilience and thriving performance, even amidst complex challenges and unforeseen setbacks.
