Enter your professional bio here : I am a business editor, writer, and content strategist who has helped leading thinkers, writers, and organizations bring out the best in their ideas for more than 25 years. Thought leadership has taken the form of books, articles, data visualizations, case studies, white papers, courseware, and strategic plans with wide appeal. My writing and reporting have appeared in publications such as Wired, Salon, Portfolio.com, The Economist, The Industry Standard, The Financial Times, The Nation, Food & Wine, Sunset, Parenting, and San Francisco Classical Voice. I have collaborated with leading thinkers to write and edit articles that have appeared in Harvard Business Review, The New York Times, The McKinsey Quarterly, The Economist Intelligence Unit, The Financial Times, Fortune.com, BCG Perspectives, Accenture Research, Deloitte Insights, and Strategy+Business, as well as bestselling business books published by Random House, Harvard Business Review Press, St. Martin's Press, and Wiley. Most recently I was editor in chief at Tanium's Focal Point brand journalism magazine and a senior editor at T Brand Studio of The New York Times, as well as deputy editor at Boston Consulting Group, where I scaled up and coached BCG's network of 28 high-performing freelance thought-leadership writers and managed the creation of innovative interactive and infographic data visualizations. Previously as a senior writer at BCG, I wrote dozens of high-profile thought-leadership articles and reports on topics such as big data, digital transformation, marketing, pricing, education, and social impact. I was formerly a part of the launch team and an executive editor of The Industry Standard magazine, assistant managing editor for new media at Time Inc.'s Parenting magazine, and chief content editor for the Jack Welch Management Institute. I have an MBA from Columbia Business School, a master of journalism degree from UC Berkeley, and a bachelor's degree in comparative literature from Brown University.
