About me

I'm part agency and part brand; part strategic and part creative.

- I believe that placing humans at the heart of our strategies and approach are key to a brand's success.

- I believe strategy provides the roadmap to building a successful team and producing effective marketing.

- I believe building sustainable systems and infrastructures are the backbone to providing a highly efficient and effective collaborative environment.

- I believe great, purposeful creative is the manifestation of well-thought-out strategies.

My adrenaline is fueled by building teams and contributing to the successful growth of brands.

My expertise spans from building high-performing teams, developing cohesive brand narratives and launching product and brand campaigns to driving brand affinity and growing revenue.
I began my career at a creative marketing agency, leading teams to grow brands from technology, entertainment, retail, health & wellness, to real estate, automotive, food & beverage and CPG .
Looking to build a brand from the inside out, I then joined IMAX, the leader in entertainment technology within the immersive theatrical space — transforming the creative services department into an award-winning in-house team — IMAX Creative.
After 7 years of building IMAX Creative, I transitioned into a newly established role at IMAX as VP, Marketing Strategy & Planning where I oversee the overall planning cycle for the marketing organization and most importantly our content slate.
In the community, I am a Big Brother mentor for 12+ years with Catholic Big Brothers Big Sisters.
