An experienced leader in aerospace shares her leadership strategies and the keys to her success, emphasizing the importance of business management and effective contract negotiation, all while expressing gratitude for the lessons learned along the way.
Strategic. Articulate. Empowering.
Welcome to Lyte Life & Leadership — a space built for corporate professionals who want to lead with clarity, grow with intention, and show up as their full selves at work.
Everything here is organized around four L’s:
Life — The heart of this community. Real conversations about what it means to lead well, live fully, and build a career that reflects who you actually are.
Lessons — Where I share leadership insights, career strategies, and honest reflections from my own journey — including topics that don’t get talked about enough in professional spaces, like late ADHD diagnoses, mentorship, and building a personal brand from scratch.
Library — A curated collection of resources, reads, and references to support your growth as a leader and professional.
Levers — Practical, printable tools designed to help you take action. Because strategy without execution is just an idea.
...Director of Contracts & Business Management for one of the largest aerospace and defense companies in the world, where I lead complex, high-value negotiations and build high-performing teams at the intersection of business strategy, legal precision, and people leadership.
But what drives me most isn’t the deals. It’s the people.
I believe the best leaders are self-aware ones — and I’ve spent my career learning that the hard way, through grief, transition, a late ADHD diagnosis, and the kind of growth that only comes from being honest with yourself.
I created Lyte Life & Leadership because I wanted to build the resource I wish I’d had — practical, grounded, and real.
If that resonates, you’re in the right place.
