My passion is connecting people across cultural differences and empowering them to achieve their business goals. 

I teach international marketing to MBA students at UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business, examining the opportunities and challenges of growth in the global marketplace. As a consultant and speaker, I help companies grow internationally with products and services that reflect local cultures and teams that thrive across boundaries. Fluent in English, French, and Japanese, I am proud to have led multilingual, multinational teams throughout my career. 

I believe global awareness increases empathy, inclusivity, and productivity, and that clear-sighted and compassionate leadership ignites the creativity of diverse teams.
