EXPERIENCE

Throughout my professional life, I've held marketing and sales roles within companies that I believe in. These experiences have shaped my knowledge of how to build an authentic brand and loyal following.

I believe each brand has the ability to connect with their fans by providing them with real value

and I'm here to help my clients communicate this value digitally.

I have worked in marketing for over 14 years and have seen the drastic shift that engaging social media has had on consumers' purchasing behavior. My expertise has helped me and my partners run highly successful marketing campaigns to yield millions in sales. 


My purpose is to help my clients promote their brands through a comprehensive strategy that leverages their data to elicit real engagement and revenue.
