Hey! I’m Viv.

I'm an author, speaker, and feedback advocate. I help people build trust, spark connection, and create meaningful change through better feedback conversations.

Three core principles ground my work and guide my life.

My work—through my book, keynotes, and workshops—is grounded in three core principles that help organizations and individuals understand that how you say it matters as much as what you say when it comes to feedback.


When we learn to let cultural and emotional intelligence guide how we impart feedback, we don’t just improve performance—we build trust, connection, and meaningful change.

Create intentionality and practice every day.

Feedback isn’t a performance management tool. It’s a human practice we engage in every day. We need to show up in every room, on every page, and in every conversation.

Tools are only as good as their context.

We’ve all read the frameworks, seen the models, and practiced the steps. But feedback without context isn’t helpful. Cultural awareness, timing, and relationships matter.

Giving feedback is hard. Receiving it is harder.

If we want to grow—in leadership, in relationships, in life—we need to be brave enough to have the conversation, and open enough to learn from it.

Book with coming soon on the cover

My book is coming this fall!

I’m a professional leader with global roots and deep experience in navigating feedback, leadership, and human connection. My book outlines my feedback framework, methods, and real-life examples of finding empathy in the midst of challenge.

Interested in booking me to speak at an event?

Feedback isn’t just a corporate skill—it’s a life practice. I help people and organizations transform how they give, receive, and grow through feedback. How can I help transform you?

Thank you! We'll be in touch soon.
