About this speaker

For over two decades, I've dedicated my career to guide entrepreneurs & CEOs to become uniquely sought-after in the market at the intersection of brand (re)positioning, innovation & community--resulting in $100 million+ in revenue & unmeasurable impact for my clients, collectively.

AI-Powered Growth: As co-founder & President of Virgent AI, we are transforming how companies operate by developing enterprise-grade AI agents & AI-enabled software solutions. Our mission is to move businesses & industries beyond AI-curious to AI-powered, safely. The advent of LLMs & generative AI marks a new innovation cycle, arguably bigger than the internet's rise. AI will disrupt all business workflows across sectors within 24-36 months. For forward-thinking leaders we are your thought partner & development arm to leverage AI thoughtfully to open up human agency, solve real-world problems & gain a competitive edge. 

Brand Repositioning: My journey in brand repositioning began at Prudential, where I was an integral part of their award-winning repositioning. I've since applied these skills to the entrepreneurial growth market. As founder of Disruptive CEO Advisory, I've supported over 1000+ services, SaaS & emerging tech brands. Central to my approach is the U.N.I.Q.U.E Method™, a strategic framework elevating brands from commodities to sought-after industry experts. This proprietary process is the missing link for CEOs seeking strategic alignment & intentional growth and has resulted in transforming business models & $100 million+ in revenue. 

Community: My commitment to community drives ecosystems. As co-chair & head of growth for DC Startup Week (largest entrepreneurial conference & community in the DMV) & an advisor for growth stage startups, I nurture the next generation of industry disruptors. I serve on Codespa America's board; host the From Spaghetti to Growth Business Podcast, sharing unique founder stories on business growth & AI's transformative power; and am an international speaker.

My Mission is Personal: In the 90s, my parents' businesses neared bankruptcy, changing everything for our family. I've since sought the missing growth formula to help founders move from a commodity to a sought-after brand. Initially, I thought differentiation was the sole issue. However, the current AI revolution has revealed that my parents' struggles also resulted from the rise of the internet & new capabilities they overlooked. My life comes full circle now—advising companies not just on repositioning, but guiding them into the new AI-powered world. Never been more passionate
