What i Do

I'm All About You

I believe in helping you realize your full potential and do well by doing good.  I believe in building 4P businesses, that is businesses driven to excel by focusing on People, Planet, Profits and Purpose. I'm prepared to help you at any level - from impartial advice to strategy to practical implementation to team-building. I want to help you make the most of every opportunity and maximize positive meaningful impact with every decision. 

The Technical Stuff

Whether you're just starting out or looking to restructure I have you covered.   I have qualified expertise in social responsibility, risk management, international business, team building and facilitation, and organizational leadership. 


Much of my work focuses on fine-tuning organizational culture, building leadership skills, optimizing team efficacy, and honing strategic plans. In so doing, I bring a uniquely curated experience to leaders to develop a well-defined and living vision, mission and core values that are central and foundational to organizational culture and the success of future strategic initiatives. My track record of helping teams achieve exceptional results is supported by my research on corporate social responsibility, collaboration, and equity, diversity and inclusion in leadership. I am the author of Collaborative Intelligence: The Next Frontier in Relational Competencies (2016) and am authoring the chapter Why Leaders Build Businesses with Purpose in a Routledge book sequel to Leadership and Change.


I received a MBA from Fordham University in Marketing and International Business, with Beta Gamma Sigma and Alpha Mu Alpha high honors, and a BA from Colgate University.  I later went on to complete a doctorate in Organizational Leadership from Pepperdine University. 


I worked in New York City doing global business with Fortune 500 companies for two decades, Being half Greek, I spend time each year in Greece, and currently reside in Los Angeles.



My Experience

I completed my dissertation on Corporate Social Responsibility. In my dissertation, Doing it the Right Way, I identified the leading American Fortune 500 global corporations and analyzed why and how they do “itCSR” – a sophisticated level of CSR that represents a more ideal contribution of a corporation in society and produces meaningful triple bottom line impact (emphasis on people, planet and profits). 


Previously, I was a Managing Director at Aon Risk Services, a global insurance broker and consultant. In this role, I ran the East Coast operations of the Global Business Unit, which handled the multinational risk management needs of Fortune 500 companies. I was also one of seven appointees to the company's Global Steering Committee. In addition, I spearheaded the Women’s International Network for Aon, as part of its Diversity and Inclusion strategy. 


As a co-founding partner of Gazelle Advisors, I has been consulting for-profit businesses, such as Dogeared (retail), Dermstore (retail, subsidiary of Target) and trepwise (a boutique consulting practice), in addition to advising non-profit businesses, such as Heal the Bay, Roundhouse Aquarium, Team Prime Time and Open Temple. I have also held the role of Acting Executive Director for Face the Future Foundation.  I have worked closely with Social Venture Partners’ Fast Pitch non-profit participants, Annenberg/CNN Hero’sFast Pitch participants, and TedX participants as a coach. I presently sit on two non-profit boards: Environmental Charter School and Open Temple. I have participated in several race equity programs, such as Equity in the Center, SVP's Building Allies, Hollback Upstander training, EdX Bridging Differences, and Transforming Dominant Culture.


I  currently teach Leadership & Service in the Social Entrepreneurship & Change Master’s Program at Pepperdine University. I have also taught Program Evaluation & Measurement for the same program as well as Leading Inclusive Organizations in Vanderbilt University’s Leadership and Learning in Organizations Doctoral Program. Lastly, I am an entrepreneur as the founder and designer of Aliki Designs - Greek-inspired, handcrafted, friendship cord bracelets. 

Why Me?

Quite simply? Because I give a damn.


I care about leaving a legacy which inspires my kids and their generation to, in turn, build their own legacy. 

And my legacy is guided by the ancient Greek proverb: a society grows great when old people plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit under.
