Teresa is a leader in McKinsey’s Transformation & Operations practices. While she primarily leads large-scale supply chain and procurement programs, she advises clients across the full spectrum of enterprise transformation, including technology, operations, growth strategy, and organizational change management. Teresa serves clients across multiple industries, with deep experience in travel and hospitality, infrastructure, industrials, and financial services.
Teresa’s most recent client experience includes:
- building a supply-chain-as-a-service business for a global infrastructure company, including rewiring supply chain operations through AI-enabled tools and processes, supplier ecosystem, and competitive position
- transforming the operations of a global travel and hospitality company, driving sustainable operating-model standardization, AI-enabled productivity improvements, and organizational change management at scale
- counseling CEOs and senior executives on leadership transitions, strategy, and organizational change.
In addition to her client work, Teresa leads McKinsey’s Chicagoland Community and Social Impact, which helps colleagues turn their passion into action, serving local communities through volunteering, charitable giving, and nonprofit fellowships. She also leads McKinsey’s regional pro bono committee. She has focused local impact on inclusive economic growth, education, food security, and opportunity gaps.
Teresa serves on the boards of Civic Consulting Alliance and Girls on the Run Chicago. Her most recent community impact experience includes:
- accelerating closure of the talent gap in Chicagoland through skills-based hiring, apprenticeship, and retention in priority career pathways
- transforming a Chicago-based cultural institution to reimagine its sustainability, environmental, and community-education programs
- counseling local civic and nonprofit leaders on leadership transitions, agenda setting, and effectiveness.
Outside of work, Teresa enjoys spending time with her two children, family, and friends, and has a passion for travel, food, and wellness. Known among her friends as a travel and wellness insider, she has refined a highly curated understanding of the hotels that are worth booking, the restaurants that are worth the wait, and the experiences that make travel exciting. A committed cook, she loves learning about local food culture and practices wherever she travels, so she can bring new tastes to her family and friends in Chicago.
Wherever she goes, she loves to run. She learns a place through long miles, early light, and streets she has never seen. For Teresa, the best travel brings together a beautiful place, memorable meals, wellness, and time with the people she loves.
