  • Co-Founder

    I believe that every organization's success story starts with its people. With over 20 years of progressive HR leadership experience across domestic and international businesses, I've made it my mission to help organizations discover what they can do when they truly empower their talent.

    At Kandu Leadership, I partner with organizations to transform their HR and talent development challenges into opportunities for growth. My journey has taken me from building HR departments from the ground up to transforming global organizations, consistently delivering results that matter:

    • Scaled organizations effectively, helping one company grow from 550 to 1,100 employees while maintaining cultural integrity

    • Designed and implemented award-winning diversity programs that continue to shape organizations today

    • Created innovative retention strategies that successfully kept critical talent during challenging transitions

    • Built and restructured HR teams to deliver enhanced performance monitoring and strategic support

    • Developed global HR practices that effectively support international and remote employee populations

    What truly energizes me? Those moments when organizations realize their full potential through aligned leadership and empowered teams. Whether it's restructuring an HR function, developing retention strategies for critical roles, or creating metrics that drive performance, I focus on practical solutions that deliver lasting results.

    At Kandu Leadership, we believe in making the impossible possible. Through our executive leadership alignment, operational excellence, leadership enablement, and HR augmentation services, we help organizations transform their talent challenges into stepping stones for growth.

    My approach combines strategic thinking with practical execution, always focused on building the collaborative relationships that drive success. Because in today's dynamic business environment, it's not just about what your organization can do – it's about what your people can do.

  • Co-Founder

    With a passion for turning 'what if' into 'what's next,' I've spent my career helping organizations discover what they Kandu. As a founder of Kandu Leadership, I bring over two decades of experience in transforming organizations through human-centered leadership development.

    My journey has taken me from developing thousands of volunteer leaders in youth development to shaping global talent strategies for an international nonprofit healthcare organization, where I helped build teams that literally change lives. Along the way, I've guided Fortune 500 companies through organizational transformation and supported countless leaders in discovering their true potential.

    As a Certified Hogan Leadership Coach with expertise in DiSC, change management, and crucial conversations, I combine proven tools with practical experience to help organizations thrive. But what really gets me excited? Those 'aha moments' when leaders discover their true capabilities and teams align around shared purpose.

    My experience spans multiple sectors - from transportation and logistics to nonprofit management - giving me a unique perspective on leadership challenges across different organizational cultures. I've led learning and development initiatives that have touched thousands of lives, designed global talent management strategies, and helped organizations navigate complex change with confidence.

    At Kandu Leadership, I partner with small and medium-sized businesses to transform their leadership challenges into achievements. My approach? Making the complex simple and the impossible possible. Because I believe every organization has untapped potential just waiting to be unleashed.

    After all, leadership development isn't just about what happens in the boardroom – it's about bringing our whole selves to everything we do.
