I’m passionate about people, big ideas, and projects that bring them together. Being able to craft stories (digital, social media, PR) has given me the opportunity to work with clients across a wide range of industries. From technology to nonprofits, action sports, and manufacturers.Experience has taught me to collaborate with egolessness, listen, to be adaptable and curious, to stay calm and positive when things get stressful, and to keep having fun doing what I’m passionate about: connecting with people, understanding their vision, and simplifying complex problems.
