Hey, I’m Mackenzie.

I build teams where people thrive and results follow. I’m a leader, speaker, and mentor dedicated to building authentic teams, empowering women in leadership, and driving people-first progress.

About

I believe leadership starts with people. As Vice President of Client Services at Shift Interactive, I’ve helped grow one of Iowa’s top custom software firms while building a culture of authenticity, trust, and growth. Along the way, I’ve learned that the best results don’t come from processes or profits alone — they come from investing in people.

My own journey has been shaped by resilience. After experiencing a stroke, I returned to leadership with renewed clarity: work and life must coexist, and success is only meaningful when people are supported to thrive.

My Values

Authenticity: Real conversations and real leadership matter.

Trust: Strong teams are built on transparency and follow-through.

Growth: I’m committed to helping people find clarity, confidence, and momentum.
