Senior Director of Engineering

Lead in tech and actually get heard.

I've spent 20 years in corporate, across all kinds of companies and sectors, and climbed every rung of the chain of command: from engineer to Senior Director. Meetings that decide nothing, good ideas that go nowhere, rooms where it's hard to be taken seriously: I know them because they were mine. I give you the concrete frameworks to change that.

About

I've climbed every rung of the chain of command

I'm not telling you this second-hand. I've spent more than 20 years in corporate, in seven companies of different sectors and sizes, and I've held every rung: engineer, manager, director, Senior Director of Engineering. What I tell you about meetings, influence or presence isn't theory from a book: it's the rooms I've sat in and the rooms I've run.

And there's something almost nobody's telling you: how AI is changing what's expected of anyone who leads. I've seen it in my teams and in my own decisions: what now makes a manager valuable and what no longer does. It's not a prediction, it's already happening.

One more thing, because it explains how I work. For 20 years I've been one of the few women in the room. I know what it's like to walk in where you don't quite fit, get questioned more than you should, and earn your seat anyway. That serves anyone who feels outside the conversation: because you come from the technical side, because you're the new or the youngest person, or simply because nobody taught you how that game is played.

Expertise

Where I actually help you

Get heard and get your ideas through

Your ideas go unnoticed and never quite move forward, especially in meetings that decide nothing. I give you the frameworks to position them, steer the conversation to the point, and walk out with a decision, owners and a date.

Positioning and executive presence

You're already doing the next level's job, but when promotion comes up you're told “not yet”, that you lack executive presence. We look at what signals you send in every meeting, email and decision, and what has to change so leadership already sees you on the next rung, without turning into someone you're not.

Delegate and deliver without burning out

You delegate and then redo it because it didn't come out the way you would have, and holding the pace between one reorg and the next wears you down. We look at how to truly let go and deliver without depending on whoever holds out the longest.

Lead when AI moves everything

Your team already works with AI and you're not entirely sure what's expected of you now. I help you get your bearings: which parts of your work gain value, which lose it, and how not to fall behind your own people.
