WORK HISTORY
Global Head of Marketing & Communications @Secretariat
Chicago, IL, US
Reporting directly to the C-suite, I oversee a dynamic, global marketing and communications team, manage multimillion-dollar campaigns, and partner closely with practice leaders to shape and execute integrated marketing strategies across brand, digital, business development, and internal and external communications. I was initially brought in as a fractional marketing leader to support this fast-growing, private equity-backed professional services firm. I was soon invited to join full time to build and lead global marketing and communications from the ground up.Since joining, I’ve played a key role in the firm’s rapid growth – from 100 to 650+ people and 6X revenue growth. I built a high-performing team that reflects the firm’s entrepreneurial culture and thrives on bringing fresh, business-aligned ideas to life. I’ve led the marketing integration of four consulting-firm acquisitions and helped shape go-to-market strategies for around one hundred managing directors.From rebranding the company and overhauling the entire digital marketing infrastructure to directing multiple global leadership meetings and introducing new employee engagement programs, I’ve helped elevate the firm\'s visibility, consistency, and professionalism.I thrive in complex, high-growth environments and love collaborating to turn strategic vision into tangible momentum.Director of Marketing & Communications - October 2021 to presentFractional Marketing Leader - June 2019 to October 2021
