Leader of global program of change, improvement and innovation across strategy, customer-led design, insight, experience and engagement. Exceptional operational acumen and global leadership experience. I am an innovator and change driver who excels at identifying and assessing business opportunities in new and promising market segments. Proud of my work ethic and proven ability to successfully manage and grow diverse businesses, create new, profitable ones, and build on opportunities I've identified. Select successes include founding and developing Institutional Investor's leading presence in the defined contribution, wealth management and advisory, and sub-advisory markets. Other accomplishments: Paid for me own education through my graduate degree Columbia University by working 3 jobs including as Research Assistant for renowned scholars Zbigniew Brzezinski, James Chace, Kenneth Maxwell, and Seweryn Bialer. Have built my career at Institutional Investor from the ground up, starting as a freelance writer in the events businesses and then as an administrative assistant. I have been a Mentor and Selection Committee Member for the Graduate Trainee Program, a structured 6-month paid internship program which identifies promising recent graduates and places them within the business group matching the trainee's education, skill sets, and interests. Trainees who graduate from the program successfully are guaranteed employment at the company. Passionate about and involved in animal protection and rescue causes and associated charitable efforts.less
