Ivonne is a former corporate executive and founder of empower Up Consulting. She spent more than 20 years inside some of the world’s biggest brands across healthcare, retail, manufacturing and real estate. She helps organizations—and the people in them—thrive through change and unleash their full potential by exposing the invisible forces that fuel disengagement and disconnection.

Ivonne is a workplace survivalist, a corporate warrior teaching others how to navigate the chaos. She understands the REAL employee experience, and builds culture that works in practice, not theory.

Ivonne is a first-gen American, proud Gen X-er, mediocre hip hop dancer, foodie and former military brat who lives in the suburbs of Chicago with her family and a black cat.
