Trisha entered advertising as a copywriter at Leo Burnett, later becoming creative director on the Revlon account at Grey. In 1981, she created the marketing strategy, fashion look and name "Swatch" for a new line of inexpensive Swiss watches. Swatch is cited by strategy guru Gary Hamel in "Competing for the Future" as "imaginative, compelling and foresightful... not just a marketing innovation, Swatch was a reconception of the entire Swiss watchmaking industry. The result: 25 million watches produced in 1992, a revitalized Swiss watchmaking industry..." In 1989 Swatch was named a "Marketing Milestone of the Decade" by The Wall Street Journal.
An honors graduate of the University of Missouri School of Journalism, Trisha is an opera lover, avid skier and cyclist. For 25 years she has been a Global Investor and fundraiser for The Hunger Project. She has been interviewed by The Wall Street Journal, Fox News, CNN and Gotham magazine about time management and executive coaching. Trisha lives in Manhattan.
