I’m Kerry, a creative problem-solver and process consultant passionate about working with small businesses and innovative brands.
As the daughter of a small business owner, I’ve experienced first-hand the challenges that come with running a business. I’ve always admired my fathers’ entrepreneurial spirit, and so it’s been my goal to leverage my unique strengths to help other business owners.
In addition to a Masters degree in Mediation & Alternative Dispute Resolution, I have a unique background blending marketing, customer service, training, change management, operations, and project management. I'm passionate about effective communication, and I possess a real knack for team collaboration and efficiency. So much so that I’ve been called “the glue” on several of my teams.
I’m a solutions-oriented creator, orchestrator, and arranger, who thrives in the midst of confusion and seemingly intractable problems. I’ve been a pivotal leader in various types of new ventures including startups, product launches, and even hotel openings.
My favorite question is “How do we solve X,Y,Z?!”. Let’s chat–I’d love to be a sounding board and explore how I can make an impact for your business.
