I work with creative teams to craft effective brand strategies and tell stories. I started as an editor on in-house production teams, eventually working at agencies leading teams. I live in Brooklyn and enjoy reading, thrifting, and cooking (eating too).

Thanks for being here! Don’t hesitate to reach out and continue the conversation.
