Hi there! Thanks for stopping by.
I am an innovative, adaptable account manager and marketing strategist with 9+ years of progressive, cross industry experience in implementing creative multimedia solutions that build brand awareness and drive sustainable growth.
I have worked in the advertising, healthcare, public health, nonprofit, and pro sports industries doing pretty much everything from design to project management to copywriting.
An inclusive people leader, I am adept at cultivating partnerships with cross-disciplinary team members, external partners, and clients through a consultative, collaborative approach.
Outside of work, I am a dog dad (x2), sports watcher, hockey player, record collector, concert goer, and comedy fan.
Let's connect and talk about how we can do great work together.
