Why I left corporate.

I didn’t risk everything to be free.  I risked everything because I refused to stay small.  None of the titles, the corner offices, yes, even the paycheck…they came with applause + smiles from people who never asked if I was fulfilled.  Every day I watched my passion, my vision, my reach shrink to fit inside someone else’s structure, someone else’s lens, someone else’s dream. 


My ideas were too bold, too fast, too unapologetic for a system built on playing safe. My leadership was too employee-centric, too kind, too curious.  So I made the call most only dream about + most friends + family will not support.  I walked out on certainty for the kind of freedom you cannot negotiate in a boardroom on December 29, 2020.  Within weeks the same companies I once worked for came to me for strategy.


That was the birth of Another Corporate Dropout.  I built it to give entrepreneurs, hospitality groups, wellness brands, + high performing teams the strategy, systems, + storytelling to dominate in their lane.  I wanted to create impact that lasts + legacy that matters.  Every client we touch leaves with a brand that is unshakable, unstoppable, + undeniable.  Walking away was never the end of my career. It was the moment my legacy began.
