I'm the co-founder of CommerceNext, a community, event series and conference for marketers at retail and direct-to-consumer brands. I love the retail and ecommerce industry and have enjoyed programming and writing about the industry's transformation into digital and the growth of ecommerce. I'm interested in everything from the Metaverse to new performance marketing strategies using first-party data. I’m also an advocate for women in business and founded the global non-profit mBolden (formerly Women in Wireless). I’ve spoken at dozens of retail conferences, contributed to a number of publications and have been interviewed by NPR, WSJ and TechCrunch. My success as an entrepreneur combined with my support for women in digital has led Fast Company to include me in its League of Extraordinary Women and TechWeek to name me as one of the Top 100 digital leaders in New York. I hold a BA from American University and an MBA from the Wharton School.
