Summary
My career as a global executive building businesses in the US and Japan rests on four pillars: - Technology. The great enabler of progress in information, economics, climate and medicine. - Creativity. The force that sparks our imagination and empathy to create meaning and connection. - Strategy. The framework for analysis, scenario planning and prioritization to make the right decisions. - Health. Well-being in the broadest sense - financial, physiological, mental, communal, societal, environmental. All the outcomes we strive for in business should advance some aspect of health and improve the human condition. I lead teams focused on these four pillars to create transformative impact. My eclectic skillset in tech, business and creative includes the following: - As an executive at Herbalife I led development and support of enterprise and consumer e-commerce applications to grow the company from $1B to $5B in revenue across 95 countries. - As product management consultant for the climate tech start-up Dashboard Earth, I led the planning and delivery of a methodology and roadmap resulting in a major partnership with City of Los Angeles. - As business lead at Razorfish and Quinstreet, I led digital strategy accounts with key corporate clients in US and Japan including Nissan, Sony, Vodafone, Lehman Brothers and Charles Schwab. - As a writer I’ve led marketing communications, content strategy and published fiction and non-fiction at Simon and Schuster, Hollywood production companies and major US newspapers. Thanks for stopping by. Let's do work that matters for a better tomorrow.
