and many more


I have an indelible passion for bringing inspiration and imagination to the world. With a deep, irresistible drive to make unimaginable possibilities a reality, I lead and create experiences that push beyond the ordinary to defy status quo.
My expertise is in storytelling through branding, creative direction, and product. I excel at finding solutions through creative, innovative concepts. I’m skilled at presenting to clients, pitching new ideas, and leading talented teams; bringing out the best of individual and collaborative excellence.
I’ve completed and led award-winning work for worldwide organizations, creative agencies, tech consultancies, startups, and more – scaling brands to acquisitions and IPOs in Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Seattle, and beyond.
