I started my career in my hometown at the Tampa Bay Times, went on to work with The New York Times, and later led product development for a new platform at Adpay. That work ultimately resulted in a multimillion-dollar acquisition by Ancestry.com.
After years of working at the intersection of technology, growth, and product, I founded Ship Sunshine to help brands connect with people through thoughtful paper printing and branded merchandise. Ship Sunshine has been recognized as Best for Colorado’s Inspirational Leader and was a finalist for the Denver Chamber of Commerce’s Startup of the Year.
I later founded dropSHIP Like It’s Hot, a boutique order fulfillment company specializing in complex print and swag-driven distribution, kitting, and global logistics.
Along the way, I’ve been recognized as a 40 Under 40 by the Denver Business Journal, named to Top 25 GenXYZ by ColoradoBiz Magazine, and nominated for Start-Up Person of the Year by the Small Business Administration.
In addition to building and operating companies, I offer consulting and advisory support to help individuals and organizations launch, grow, develop strategic partnerships, and navigate moments of transition.
I’m deeply involved in the Colorado civic and nonprofit community. I serve on the Denver Metro Chamber Leadership Foundation B:CIVIC Advisory Board, Chair the Programs & Content Committee, am Vice Chair of The Action Center, and serve on the Boards of REVEL and Social Venture Partners.
I grew up in the sunshine state, St. Petersburg, FL and currently live in the sunshine city, Denver, with my husband, Marty, and dog, Maddie.
