When AI started reshaping how organizations operate, I saw frameworks that each addressed a piece of the adoption challenge, but nothing that connected them. So I built a methodology that does. 

Adoption by Design is built specifically for AI adoption, grounded in research, and designed to produce measurable outcomes.

I launched my independent practice in 2016 and have been consulting independently ever since. My career spans organizational change management, organizational development, organizational design, and strategic human resources.  I have coached leaders and teams through complex change across industries including financial services, retail, professional services,  and the federal government.  

How I Work

I start by listening. I adapt my approach to the culture, the people, and the complexity of what's actually happening. My engagement style is facilitation-driven and collaborative.

When I leave, your organization is in a stronger position than where we started. Every engagement builds your organization's capability to sustain what we accomplished together and carry it forward without a dependency on me.

"You helped us discover many change management issues that we would have never thought of on our own. Also, the materials you prepared were invaluable. We could not function today without them. We really enjoyed working with you."

Credentials

I am Prosci Change Management Certified with an Advanced Practitioner designation and I am a founding member of the Association of Change Management Professionals (ACMP).  I hold a Master's in Industrial and Labor Relations from Cornell University and a BA in Psychology and Sociology from Franklin & Marshall College.

I earned the Applied AI Change Management Certification through Change Management Review™ and invested in Prosci's Human Centered AI Design and AI Adoption Workshops before building the methodology.

That combination of deep change management experience and AI-specific expertise is the foundation Adoption by Design was built on.

Planning your AI adoption, or seeing that your AI adoption isn't delivering?
I built a methodology that addresses this. Let's figure it out together.
