I thrive in the "David and Goliath" environment where I’ve cultivated a reputation for building innovative partnerships that elevate both organizations beyond what either could achieve alone. I’m an accomplished marketing and business development leader with hunter-focused development skills based on 25+ years of quantifiable success generating strategic partnerships for Fortune 500 national flag ship brands (e.g., Johnson & Johnson), national media (i.e., Conde Nast), non-profit health (e.g., American Diabetes Association) and startups to generate incremental revenues and brand awareness. My marketing wisdom is built on my Fortune 500 consumer marketing foundation of developing​/​executing marketing plans with P&L budget responsibility, including new product development, cause marketing, licensing, advertising, and promotions. I’ve been recognized for my collaborative management leadership experience and marketing accomplishments have been covered in leading business publications.
