I am a conduit for inspirational energy, a firestarter, a philosopher and a wannabe chef. Some even call me Guru. I get employees and clients excited about what could be, then find ways to make it happen - across all industries and across all brands.

I founded Square360 in 2002 with the vision of saving the world from bad design. I’ve moved CBRE, pointed Arrow Electronics, dolled up Anthropologie, bagged Tumi, colored L’Oreal and cured American Cancer Society.

As the only girl of five children I learned early how to stake my claim. I never stopped.
