LVL-Up has built a culture of adaptability for our staff and our clients by embracing change, taking risks, planning for the entire alphabet, and communicating clearly.

To benefit from inspiration in action, you need a company culture that celebrates diversified thinking and creative problem solving.

Our clients rely on us to build strategies that are 1) fearless in their approach, yet adaptable in their execution; 2) solve complex problems with creative solutions; and 3) streamline multi-directional logistics into efficient processes.

We spent two years in Kinshasa and it was a fascinating place. I’m often asked about living in Congo and so I put together a list of things that I learned while serving there.

Even in our remote work environment, LVL-Up’s founders have created a collaborative and suppportive culture that provides the psychological safety needed to grow and progress.

Congratulations, you are starting the life of an EFM (Eligible Family Member). You have agreed to move every 2-3 years and will soon learn the weight of all of your clothes. You will become an expert at planning the unplannable.

In 2016 I left my job in management consulting to explore new career opportunities and to have time to support my family of five (plus a dog) as we transitioned from living in Brazil to moving back to the United States.
