Read the storyWho I am
I've spent more than 20 years building businesses, leading digital transformation and helping brands grow. My career has taken me from operating businesses to advising them, from the executive team to the boardroom and now back to building again. The common thread has always been transformation: finding better ways to grow, operate and serve customers.
Today, I'm building businesses of my own. Catalyst Consulting acquired the RICH Hair Care intellectual property, trademarks and rights for North, Central and South America, and I founded RICH Hair Care Americas to build the brand here. I also lead Catalyst Consulting and Catalyzes.ai, where I'm exploring how AI can change the way companies operate, grow and compete. I also speak on AI, transformation and what boards should be asking. Full bio
