I'm a Board Advisor & Governance Professional.

I’ve worked with the Boards and Executive Teams of large publicly traded enterprises, scrappy startups, and scaling technology companies as a governance professional and strategic advisor for over 10 years. I really enjoy working with Boards and the wealth of experience they bring to an organization.

  • Working with the Board of Directors and the Chair of the Board, I help organizations to create annual governance workplans and schedules to cover all the many governance topics that a board and its directors need to address each year.

    I also create committee structures for large public organizations and medium sized companies, including Audit, Governance and Nominating, Compensation, and Risk committees.

    I have a lot of experience, both with publicly traded and private companies, with creating Board meeting agendas, proposed resolutions, and effectiveness surveys to increase Board performance.

  • With my cross-border Canada-US governance experience, business background, and knowledge as tech-founder, technology lawyer, and privacy professional, I have held director positions with large to small organizations.

    I also help Boards in an advisory role, joining meetings regularly or as needed to advise on specific topics, including governance, legal, privacy, and strategy.

  • I’ve helped organizations, from large public companies to small private corporations, to create their Code of Conduct, Ethics Reporting procedures (whistleblower policies), and internal employment policies.

  • I’ve advised Boards of public and privacy companies on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) topics.

    I currently serve as the Corporate Secretary and Board advisor of a sustainable technology innovator revolutionizing sustainable packaging with 100% compostable and affordable plant-based solutions.

    I have also helped organizations develop inclusion policies for Board and executive team positions.

    Among the several governance topics I cover with my clients, I help organizations create effective governance programs designed to engage stakeholders and to respond to feedback, complaints, and opportunities that come up.
