概要
I am a passionate, creative storyteller. I mine culture for insights to connect consumers and brands in an ever-changing, technology-influenced world. My passion is to create "creative that moves" – humanizing brands and ultimately making them ones consumers willfully, choose to love.
As a culturally fluent, creative leader, my purpose is to elevate a brand’s IQ. I lead teams and generate creative work that changes the consumer conversation, while still serving the brand’s business objectives.
