About me

Fractional CMO, Executive Creative Director. Coach. Consultant. Entrepreneur. Author. Writer. Designer. Strategist. Satirist. Named a Top 200 Global Marketing Influencer and Top 20 "Agency Strategy" Global Influencer by Onalytica.
I co-founded two companies with @BryanKramer:
- PureMatter, a global marketing Silicon Valley consultancy specializing in Marketing and Creative strategy and consulting. *
- H2H Companies (Human-to-Human) coaches leaders on how to be more human and create more authentic and human-centric teams to better connect with their employees and customers.

My superpower is helping people and programs get clear and creating beauty and order out of chaos. I am one of the only 3% of women Creative Directors in the US and have been told I have a knack for making the complex simple. I believe in the intense power of creativity and laughter to change the world, and have a wicked sense of humor. I am a specialist in building strategic Marketing programs and teams from the ground up.
In my career, I have learned:
- That the most successful campaigns are only propped up by a solid strategy and knowing your customer inside and out, then measuring it and making it better
- How to build and lead teams of creatives inside my agency
- How to manage and get the most out of outside agencies and vendor partners
- How to connect and align all aspects of business with Marketing as a CMO
- The key to happiness is doing great work that is on purpose, with integrity and a giant sense of humor

From I served as the Global Head of Marketing for The Co-Active Training Institute (formerly The Coaches Training Institute *), the world's largest experiential learning coach training and leadership development company, which is transforming the human experience through improving relationships. This was my stint on the brand side.

In my career, I have built award-winning branding, Marketing, Social Media, and Influencer programs, demand gen, and creative strategy for Netflix DVD, IBM, International Culinary Center, Cisco, Plantronics, Autodesk, Pitney Bowes and more. I also helped a lot of SMBs whose names you wouldn't recognize, but are full of heart, vision and doing great work in the world.⭐
