Biography

In my world, every single Monday feels like a Friday afternoon. I wake up each morning excited about my role in the world, and go to bed dreaming up new ways to lead, inspire, and make an impact in business and beyond. I know that I’m using my talents to the fullest, and making a visible impact — every day. And it is my sole purpose, as performance strategist, to instill that same sensibility, that same approach, in my clients across a wide range of industries, through my writing, speaking engagements, and one-on-one sessions. Today, I work with Fortune 100 companies and startups alike, helping business leaders reach their peak potential — and inspiring those they work with. Following a corporate career with American Express, Google, and Capital One, I set out on my own entrepreneurial journey, and I now advise CEOs and other business leaders on leveraging their genius for peak performance and results. I’ve traveled to nearly 40 countries around the world, on professional and personal adventures, and I’ve seen that work can be a 24/7 joyride: Fun, freeing, and deeply rewarding. It certainly is for me. This is what I inspire business leaders to experience. I’m not kidding. And I’m not exaggerating. But I do have a secret weapon. It’s a process I developed after more than a decade of work in the business and strategy world, witnessing untapped potential first hand and learning how best to tap into it. It’s a process that I call “The Zone of Genius Assessment.” It’s all about making a bigger impact, with less effort — while discovering your personal why. Everyone has untapped genius. The key is to identify — and unleash it. If you’ve ever wondered what makes your experience and expertise special, why you’re the one for the job, or why anyone should bother following in your leadership footsteps, spend just four hours with me. And the only thing you’ll be wondering is… how soon till next Monday?
