About Me

My story

I’ve always been fascinated by what drives people to make decisions—especially when it comes to why they buy. That curiosity led me to marketing, where I thrive on influencing buying patterns and creating campaigns that truly stand out. Whether it’s helping a business grow or guiding people to the best products for them, I’m passionate about making an impact.

A defining moment in my journey was when a brand I worked on won a “Best in Show” award for both marketing and product—a testament to thinking outside the box and finding creative solutions that others overlook. My background as a published photographer gives me a unique edge, allowing me to collaborate seamlessly with creatives and bring fresh perspectives to every project.

I excel in chaos and love tackling challenges head-on, bringing structure, strategy, and ingenuity to even the most complex situations. My mission is simple: help businesses grow, craft memorable campaigns, and always find the gap that others miss.
