An Innovative Brand Leader with successes from both the agency and corporate perspectives. Grew up on the Agency side as a “creative” that evolved into leadership roles focused on Consumer Engagement and Brand Strategy. Most recently, my passion has been working direct with companies, in either a consulting or on-staff role, focused on “Brand Re-Energization” including Marketing Strategies, Business Building, Creative Services, and Consumer Engagement.

With Ideation at my core, I’m a “right-left brain” brand builder who connects the dots that others may not see. My unique background allows me to tackle challenges and opportunities with a mix of business goals, marketing strategy, consumer insights, forward thinking creative solutions and flawless execution.
