She is the CEO of SDForum\, Silicon Valley’s largest and oldest high-tech non-profit that provides education and a networking community of technologists\, entrepreneurs\, VCs and others. Her professional career includes marketing for General Mills and senior management positions at Cartier International\, Bausch & Lomb (Ray Ban) and Chateau and Country (a French internet start-up). She also founded Clear-Day\, an international business accelerator working with a portfolio of companies such as Nokia and a European private equity firm. \nShe graduated with honors from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in economic history\, a Masters degree in economic history from Johns Hopkins University and an MBA from The Wharton School. She is a frequent speaker at business schools and conferences in Europe and the US.
