Marketing leader committed to delivering inspiring creative that performs.

I am passionate about the transformative power of brand and the ability to deliver a brand's authentic expression through design and storytelling. I find delight in the details, guiding my creative team with a robust vision, as well as giving them the tools, training and space essential for them to do their best work. A hands-on creative, I am always ready to roll my sleeves up and dive into the work alongside my team. With a wealth of experience, I have a proven track record of developing and executing strategic marketing plans that effectively resonate with target audiences.

 

I believe deeply in accessibility, demonstrated by my extensive technical knowledge of 508 compliance. I seek to create brand environments that reach beyond visual impact alone, seeking to cultivate an accessible experience that is equitable and catered to the needs of all individuals.
