This foundational experience shaped her understanding of business across industries and borders.

She then made her mark in media and journalism, leading U.S. and global teams for The New York Times and other industry giants like Forbes and NBC.

She empowered her teams to excel in high-stakes environments, helping them navigate challenges and achieve significant business outcomes. Her leadership consistently resulted in both near-term success and long-term transformation.
