About me

Former President of NBCUniversal International Studios. Build the division from inception into a global enterprise that generated $1.7B in revenue across 8 years. Original Exec Producer of Desperate Housewives and responsible for launching CSI at CBS. I stepped into the NBCU role without formal business training. What i had was judgement. I have spent my career leading in environments where stakes are high, talent is strong, and pressure never lets up. What i have learned: Complexity grows with scale. Smart people create noise. Strong personalities bend the truth. Under pressure, clarity slips. Clarity leaves no room for doubt. I step into complexity and make it navigable. I help leaders and organizations close the gap between their ambition and their reality. If you are circling a decision… If something feels off but you can’t name it… If growth has created noise instead of direction… That is where I work. The first session is a working conversation to see if we are a fit. Most clients begin there and continue monthly.

What to expect

15 minute session

  • - a focused, candid conversation about the issues you believe matter most.
  • - in our time together, we will clarify the actual decision in front of you, separate signal from noise, and identify what is distorting your thinking or your organization.
  • - the goal of the first session is to determine whether ongoing work together would meaningfully help you close the gap between your ambition and your reality.
