I built my career inside some of the world’s most influential companies—Accenture, Arnold Worldwide, McCann Erickson, Microsoft, and eventually Meta—leading global teams, launching new markets, and shaping billion-dollar businesses.

These were high-velocity, high-stakes rooms. I learned exactly what it took to succeed inside them. It was my early education in how systems shape us—and what it requires to move through them with power and precision.
