Camila Duarte, CEO & Consultant, 

FOUNDHER
"Working with Gail was a very impactful part of my executive journey. As someone stepping into a leadership role without decades of knowledge or time, Gail was absolutely pivotal in helping me understand board relationships, navigate budgeting, and get operations running smoothly. She has a remarkable ability to simplify the complex and help make things happen—fast.

When I later transitioned from executive leadership to becoming a consultant and coach, Gail remained a trusted advisor. She helped me brainstorm new paths and see strengths in myself that I couldn’t yet recognize. Her combination of experience, insight, and practical knowledge makes her an incredible partner and sounding board. Most importantly, Gail just gets it—she understands what you need, when you need it, and how to support you in a way that’s both strategic and deeply human.

I’m so grateful for her guidance and belief in me."
