About Me

I am fascinated by issues and events that force us to choose sides. Over the years, I’ve contemplated everything from whether the sisterhood of #MeToo will survive the 9-to-5 to the perils of putting yourself in the public eye. I am also the founder of Top Button, a brand + strategic communications consultancy in Toronto, Canada.
