- Have you made any significant left turns, u-turns or corkscrews in life?
I've spent the last 10 years on an entrepreneurial path— on the ground, getting my hands dirty launching and running new companies. I am excited to apply what I've learned to clients on the other end of the spectrum.
- In your own words, what do you do at Lippincott?
Incubate ideas to create new business models and sources of growth for brands.
The most important thing I learned going back to graduate school was self-confidence.
- When did you decide you wanted to be in this business? Why?
Innovation means always solving problems, answering new questions and learning new things. I am someone who loves a challenge and this is the perfect job, no two days are the same.
- Being a Lippincott’er means:
Being a Lippincotter means you are creative, curious and have a love for learning.
- If you weren’t in this profession, what would you be?
If I could do it all over again, I would definitely be in academia. I'd love to be an art history professor.
