We oversee communications with all key stakeholders, including journalists, investors, analysts, employees, business partners, lawmakers and regulators.

We are so lucky at MCDS to have a diverse community of students, faculty and staff from all over the world. I truly value the fact that from a young age I was exposed to various cultures, religions and backgrounds. It helped shape my love of travel and my respect for and interest in other traditions.

My firm helps clients manage through transformative events affecting their reputation, business and market value. We oversee communications with all key stakeholders, including journalists, investors, analysts, employees, business partners, lawmakers and regulators. Over the last four years, I have worked with Boards and management teams to manage some of the most significant corporate crises and largest mergers and acquisitions.

5. Please share one of your favorite moments, experiences, or memories from your time at Miami Country Day.
After 13 great years at MCDS, it’s hard to pick just one! However, I have to say that the Senior Sunrise is a special and unique tradition. I vividly remember how emotional it was to begin our class’ last year together with a sunrise breakfast on the beach.
