About me
Growth-minded professional with 9 years international experience in brand strategy, consumer product marketing, and communications. Honed skills in startups, agency, and freelance across US, EU, and APAC markets to define opportunities, promote services, launch products, and position brands to consumers, optimizing communications to drive action and achieve business goals. With each engagement, I've made it my mission to know the customer, build trust, and find ways to continuously add value to their lives. The through-line across all of these engagements has been a focus on understanding pain-points, anticipating needs, and focusing on the customer experience to position products and services. I am looking for an opportunity to leverage my background in brand and consumer-focused marketing to deliver solutions that transforms how communities connect, improves the way teams collaborate, and empowers makers and creators.
