Education: Bachelor’s degree, DePaul University
Who I Would Call for Advice: During the commute, I call my friends for advice. Those calls during a commute are better than a Sunday morning with the Harvard Business Review. They don’t know it, but they’re an unpaid board of directors.
If I Could Have Any Other Job: Music producer. No question. I’m fascinated by artists’ talents of all musical stripes. The opportunity to be part of assembling artist to collaborate, perfect their work and build their vision is a dream.
Best Advice: When surrounded, escape forward
Previous Leadership Positions: Formerly, I lead economic development in the public sector. That included business attraction. That role never dies; I get to pitch my Cleveland to our clients making location decisions all over the world.
Bucket List: Win a demolition derby
