Brand Strategy | Product Innovation | Go-to-Market & Commercialization Leader
Consumer products leader with experience bringing innovations from insight to market and creating new growth platforms. From launching Ziploc’s first reusable silicone bag line to standing up a new innovation service at EY, I gravitate to the ambiguous, first-of-its-kind work where the playbook doesn't exist yet. I combine CPG brand management, strategic consulting, and entrepreneurial execution to move from idea to impact. I've led brand strategy, product development, and consumer insights, and I've taken new offerings from concept through launch. I love turning world-changing big ideas, especially the sustainable and better-for-you kind, into products people actually buy and use in their everyday lives.
