With over a decade in top-tier roles in corporate and business development, I have honed my skills in product management, strategy, and revenue optimization. My experience at VerticalScope as Chief Commerce Officer allowed me to lead phenomenal teams in scaling operations and driving substantial growth across diverse digital communities. This journey honed my ability to forge successful partnerships and optimize multi-channel revenue streams.
My educational background includes an MBA from the esteemed Schulich School of Business at York University, alongside several continued education courses focused on workplace wellness and health promotion.
