For you, what makes Lippincott a special place to work?: Fabulous people doing inspiring work.
What’s your favorite place you’ve traveled to?: A small village called Winster in the beautiful surrounds of the Lake District in the UK.

I balance IQ with EQ and recognize that the best of strategies need to be applied pragmatically within complex organizations.

What’s changed the least about the industry over the course of your career?: Great brands always have an authentic and uncompromising purpose for how they are moving the world forward.
Which projects have been the most meaningful to you and why?: In 2013 my daughter was diagnosed with a brain tumor. My family and I experienced first hand the exhausting battle to come out the other side while some around us haven't been so lucky. I found a chance to give back by helping refresh the identity and messaging for Bear Necessities, a pediatric cancer charity that helps kids rediscover their childhood while they discover a cure for cancer. With only four percent of government medical research funding dedicated to Childrens’ cancer care, the work of Bear Necessities and other charities is essential.
