Welcome to Olive Growth Partners

Rooted in Legacy and Purpose

The name Olive Growth Partners is more than a name—it’s a reflection of my roots. My middle name, Olive, honors my grandmother, a pioneering spirit who embodied resilience, curiosity, kindness, and high standards—values that continue to guide how I live, work, and lead.

Rooted in Beauty and Growth

Over the past two decades, I’ve helped grow businesses, scale operations, and guide teams through transformation across the beauty, wellness, and consumer sectors. From launching in new countries or channels to igniting growth of legacy brands, my work strikes the balance between strategy, operational excellence, and heart centered cultures.

Through Olive Growth Partners, I work as a consultant, fractional or interim executive - an immersed growth partner—helping purpose-driven organizations unlock growth, bring order to chaos, and navigate change. There’s just one prerequisite: we must be aligned in values. I partner best with human- and heart-centered leaders who are ready to lead with purpose and grow with intention.

My work is about walking alongside you—anchoring your organization in purpose, powered by strategy, so it can grow in alignment and thrive from the inside out.
