MY STORY
I've been in the marketing game for 15 years, leading strategy at Fortune 500 companies, managing millions of dollars in revenue, and running my own award-winning agency. My passion for marketing is rooted in data-driven decision-making, and I've honed my skills to become an expert in the field.
But my story isn't just about my professional achievements. I've faced personal challenges and come out stronger, too. I'm a U.S. Air Force veteran and formerly a homeless student who put myself through college. My experiences have taught me the value of hard work and perseverance, and they drive me to help my clients succeed in their own right.
I believe in supporting a good quality of life, which is why I focus on saving my clients time and money. I listen, ask questions, and share knowledge to create a collaborative, enjoyable experience for everyone involved.
When I'm not working, you can find me traveling the world, trying new foods, and discovering new adventures. I love solo travel, reading for knowledge, watching movies for entertainment, and finding good music in any genre. And I have two rescue dachshunds who keep me company on all my adventures.
If you're looking for a marketing consultant who is knowledgeable, competent, and a joy to work with, look no further. Let's work together to turn your marketing dreams into results.
