About Me
I help organizations communicate effectively across channels, creating content, campaigns, and visuals that connect with people. My six years in marketing and communications have taught me the importance of strategy, creativity, and thoughtful execution.
Beyond work, I love running, spending time with my family and dogs, trying every coffee shop I see, and passionately defending the oxford comma.
