• Content Strategy • Social Media • Writing • Editing • Web Analytics • Video Storytelling

My passion is to understand customer needs and find ways to best deliver brand experience. I bring cutting-edge editorial thinking with digital expertise to the table. I thrive under high pressure and have a knack to re-invent myself. A team player, I am focused and have a bias to action. I obsess over quality content.
