I’m a storyteller, collaborator, and experiential marketing pioneer with a passion for building brands that leave a lasting impression. But what does that really mean?

Let’s rewind for a moment. Twenty years ago, I left a small, struggling logging town with 18,000 people determined to jumpstart my career in sociology in the heart of inner-city Los Angeles. No, this isn’t the beginning of a feel-good film—but it was the beginning of my personal and professional journey. Through my time in internships serving the community and garnering some much-needed perspective, I realized something that would shape my approach to connection forever: people may not remember exactly what you say, but they’ll always remember how you made them feel.

That realization sparked a lifelong passion for marketing. Early in my career, I partnered with Deschutes Brewery to create one of my lofty campaigns: The Street Pub, the worlds biggest pop-up pub, a traveling street festival that brought communities together to celebrate all things local while raising funds for nonprofits. Over 2.5 years, the program drew 430,000 attendees in cities like Chicago, Washington D.C., and Denver, raising over $1 million for charity. It was a monumental effort to plan and execute, but it reinforced my belief in the power of creating moments that inspire connection and make an impact.

Fast forward to today, and I’ve built a 14+ year career as a Marketing Director, collaborating with top outdoor brands, national nonprofits, and professional sports franchises to bring brands to life, roll out one-of-a-kind retail, develop partnerships, and lead go-to-market for products from top tier CPG to emerging EV. Across these industries, one thing has remained constant: my grit! Whether navigating complex campaigns, breaking through challenges, or reaching new audiences, I thrive in moments when others say, “It can’t be done.”

Metrics like conversions, impressions, and revenue tell part of the story—but I always ask, what will leave a lasting impression? I’m driven to craft work that isn’t just effective but unforgettable, creating experiences that resonate deeply and elevate brands to the next level.
