A Lifetime of Words

Whether in my consulting firm, a top-tier venture capital firm, or Harvard Business School, I have delighted in bringing words and ideas to life. At Bella Private Markets, I led research on topics ranging from the economics of low-earth orbit through diversity in the asset management industry, and ensured our findings were presented in compelling and engaging ways. As director of corporate communications for Bessemer Venture Partners, I spent a decade learning how the partners evaluated opportunities and viewing strong—and weak—presentations. At Harvard Business School, as a Teaching Fellow and, earlier, Manager of the Center for Case Development, I researched and wrote more than 150 case studies.   

I love gathering information, honing a clear argument, and creating a streamlined presentation that makes the precise point. With my consulting and case-writing backgrounds, I can quickly absorb the details of your topic and refine your material. I helped one client develop a clean, clear pitch deck that explained the underlying rationale behind a seemingly random portfolio. For others, I provided unifying concepts for apparently disparate strategies. I help the experts, who are often too close to the topic to see it holistically, identify the heart of the topic and develop a compelling presentation.

Are you wrestling with a presentation that you feel could be better? A cover letter or resume that is missing something? A report that needs tightening or clarification? Let’s talk!
