What you won’t learn from my bio
When I'm not hard at work, I spend time with my (almost grown) kids and my husband—traveling or simply catching up on their busy lives. I love exploring different neighborhoods in New York City and grabbing bar seats for an early dinner at the hottest restaurants, especially the ones where it’s impossible to get a reservation. One day, I hope to finally learn French. My four years of high school classes haven’t helped much, so it remains a long-term (but hopeful) goal!

My passion for helping creative companies thrive led me to IDEO, where I oversee financial planning, strategy, and operational efficiency.

In this role, collaboration is at the heart of what I do—building strong partnerships between finance and client teams to drive results and strengthen relationships.

Before joining IDEO, I served as CFO/COO at Sylvain, Sub Rosa, Aruliden, Redscout, and ?What If! Innovation Partners. Earlier in my career, I held senior finance and operations roles at New Line Cinema, Napster, and Universal Music Group/PolyGram Records. I’m a CPA and based in New York City, where I live with my family.
