Bio

I have over a decade in experience leading teams and driving results and been featured in the New York Times, the Financial Post and TIME as a trend and consumer insights expert, sharing data-driven insights that showcase retail, lifestyle, tech and marketing trends. I’m an entrepreneurial spirit which has helped me to grow a burgeoning startup of 3 employees into a successful brand with 75 employees that’s helped 700+ blue chip clients. I also built a 15-city event series in 4 countries that attracts thousands of senior leaders globally. I have aided brands such as Adidas, Disney and Samsung with custom trend research, helping them to find better ideas, faster through custom research and excellent service.
