Hi, I’m Jeri!
I help senior leaders create more impact and thrive in their careers by building the influence, clarity, and resilience their roles demand.
My approach is grounded in a rare combination: more than 25 years as a senior HR leader, paired with rigorous coaching training. I understand the complexity leaders face because I’ve lived it - driving transformation and culture change, making high-stakes talent decisions, and navigating complex trade-offs and politics.
As Chief People Officer at Cengage Group, I guided leadership teams through significant transformation and growth. Before that, I spent nearly 20 years at The Boston Consulting Group (BCG), where I drove business results and built talent and operational systems for one of the largest and fastest growing regions. This experience taught me what actually works when the pressure is on—and what gets in the way.
Trained at the Hudson Institute of Coaching, I help leaders close the gap between self-awareness and real change. My clients describe me as insightful, direct, and fiercely supportive—someone who helps them lead with greater clarity, confidence, and influence that lasts.
I hold an MBA from Harvard Business School and a BA from Lafayette College. I live in Vermont with my partner Tim and our yellow lab Simba, where I relish time outdoors and with my three adult children.
