Info
As a leader I’m a strategic communicator, and an expert translator across disciplines. I inspire my teams to find novel roads to business goals, and I'm comfortable building teams to craft experiences in print, digital, and OOH environments.
My defining qualities are being 1) optimistic, 2) curious, 3) kind of silly, and 4) deadly serious.
