With a strong background in public health and education, Carrie focuses on helping businesses, both large and small, build successful teams and staffing structures. She spent 15 years in leadership positions in large organizations, including as a senior Cabinet member of the New York City Department of Education.

Unpacking the trauma and going through the process of moving on from a life-threatening situation.
“And the one thing I will say that I had planned for in advance was financially I've given myself a cushion there so that I wouldn't be stressed on that front. been saving up over time. Again, not even sure what this was the LEAP I was going to make. But I did have that there in order to support myself as it gives you more options, more sense of security and, and just the backstop.”
“I think that what I love about what we do is we have these one-on-one meetings with people. And we really get to the heart of the matter in the meetings with them. And it's all from listening. So, I just think empathy goes a long way in any industry that you're in.”
