When one leader rises, entire systems lift.
My Story
Patterns Shape Outcomes
My nearly 30-year career began as a hazardous materials manager in the aerospace industry, where I learned to identify patterns in complex systems.
When I transitioned to K–12 education in 1999, I brought that analytical lens with me. Over time, I began to see patterns in how women leaders were developed. Some were intentionally mentored and sponsored. Others navigated complexity alone.
I was fortunate. Mentors saw my potential and opened doors. I experienced what strategic support can make possible. I also witnessed what happens when that support is uneven.
That recognition is why I founded WOVEN.
E The backward E
The backward E is a statement: “there exists.”
I believe in what becomes possible when women connect, strengthen one another, and build the conditions to lead.
There exists
- I believe there exist women of vision ready to lead — and ready to be in relationship while doing it.
- I believe there are solutions waiting to be discovered when women Engage, Explore, and Elevate together.
- I believe there is a network committed to access, shared learning, and sustained support across public and mission-driven systems.
Engage • Explore • Elevate
I follow this arc: I connect with intention, I look honestly at what's real, then I elevate leadership through relationships, strategy, and shared power.
Advisory
Work begins in conversation.
I am currently focused on advisory and relational support for women leading in public and mission-driven systems. If you are seeking strategic partnership, we can begin there.
