Hi, I'm Alyssa.

I'm at my best when I'm bringing order to chaos, whether it’s across enterprise tech organizations, when I’m coaching soccer, or when I’m at home in the Pacific Northwest battling invincible Himalayan blackberries.

For almost two decades, I've helped leaders at Microsoft, Meta, Valve, and other organizations communicate more clearly, organize complex work, and keep important projects moving forward. Sometimes that means writing an executive presentation or employee communication. Other times it means planning an event, improving a process, building websites, or coordinating a team around a shared goal.

As a team member on the soccer field and on the sideline, I take that metaphor everywhere I go. Always happy to support and defend, but ready to take the ball forward and shoot.

Behind the scenes, I'm building Whatever Workshop, a creative, third space in Woodinville, Washington. While it’s still “coming soon,” I’m excited to generate opportunities for crafters to sink into an old chair with a beverage, make something by hand and exist on their own terms.

If I’m offline, it’s because my hands are in the dirt attempting to grow plants, landscaping or touring local gardens.

I'm equally an intermittent idea generator and fleece blanket connoisseur, reveling in stormy nights, wine tastings and social gatherings though usually not at the same time.
