MEET THE FOUNDER...

Thank you for your interest in GSO. As a child, I loved to build and play with Legos. I especially focused on skyscrapers and quickly learned that the higher they reach, the stronger their foundational blocks need to be. The same is true for schools, from their nimble and mature governance to the business support of their learning aspirations.

​

For over 20 years, I've developed and connected business-related blocks in leadership positions at global technology companies and international schools. By helping boards, senior leaders and teams construct, understand, and successfully use these blocks (governance, policies, budgets, communications, efficient systems, and more), they've exceeded goals, saved money, and thrilled customers and communities, while focusing on learning, the hallmark of any international school. The best part is the continuing opportunity to make global human connections, leverage a love for travel (over 100 countries on 6 continents), and adapting to how different cultures do business and educate.

 

It's a privilege and pleasure to bring this craft to dynamic boards and senior leaders like you to create lasting partnerships and friendships by helping you evolve the business of your school to meet global dynamics and secure positive results.

 

Whatever your situation, we'll apply our three core values of being relational, versatile, and efficient to fuel your success with reusable tools and skills that leaves your school, educators, and community in a better place.

In an area where developing outstanding human beings is your mission, the stronger your underlying business operations foundation is, the more you can confidently focus on and fulfill your learning aspirations.
