Who We Are

I am proud to bring 25+ years of experience in strategic business partnership, financial, and operational leadership in the consumer products industry to the table. I offer a broad array of expertise in business strategy, finance, HR, IT, and operations from having held key leadership roles at Ben & Jerry’s and Seventh Generation both pre- and post-acquisitions by Unilever. More recently I have been advising and/or taking lead roles in fast-growing impact brands like Hand in Hand Soap, Lotus Sustainables, and Grove Collaborative.

Unlocking the potential of high-growth organizations and positioning them for accelerated success is what I am passionate about, along with a personal commitment to working with mission-led companies. My in-depth knowledge of the consumer packaged-goods space coupled with insights around developing world class brands, has been the cornerstone to my success and I am excited to apply that experience to your business.

I enjoy giving back and have a long, respected history of holding board and leadership roles with a number of local and national non-profit organizations, most recently as the Treasurer on the Special Olympics Vermont Board of Directors.

I currently reside in Nashville, TN with my partner Jim. We are enjoying a co-venture of building a music company together. Music and being outdoors with our dogs are the things that keep me healthy, happy, and grounded.

My 20+ years in company leadership, customer and category development, finance, brand marketing, and scaling companies in the consumer products industry provides powerful experience to The Growth Consortium. I bring a unique combination of perspective and skill set from leading consumer product companies with over 15 of those years working with mission driven brands. I have held finance and customer development positions at Unilever and PepsiCo prior to taking on leadership roles at Bear Naked, Burt’s Bees, Seventh Generation, and most recently as the Vice President of Retail at Grove Collaborative.

My traditional experience has been fused with a passion for mission-led organizations to demonstrate how business can be a force for good. I specialize in building and scaling emerging startups in all stages and areas including customer and channel strategy, organization, strategic planning, customer supply chain, marketing, and annual planning. I would be thrilled to put this energy into helping you grow your business.

I reside in Vermont with my husband Rob and our three children. My personal passions are sustainability, health, nutrition, winning teams, reading, basketball, Crossfit and running.
