I'M
PORTIA
Mom and Wife. Corporate Executive. Author and Podcaster. Keynote Speaker and Executive Coach


I was born and raised in California, the oldest of three kids. My dad was a community college administrator and my mom a librarian. My career has taken me all over the world from my early days as a public relations executive in New York and an expatriate in China to my career today as a global Chief Marketing Officer in the tech sector.
My career philosophy boils down to four things:
- Optimize for experience.
- Optimize for learning.
- Optimize for working with people who can help you be the best version of yourself.
- Get paid what you are worth and don’t be ashamed to ask for it.


To challenge the narrative that one’s life and career need to follow a prescribed path. The only definition of success that matters is yours.
