About Me

I’m a daydreamer with big ambitions and a little bit of talent in a lot of things.

I'm from New Jersey — they named a day after me there, which I still think about more than I should.

I'm a marketing strategist who works across written, visual, and video formats. I don't shoot every photo or edit every video — I see the story, figure out how it wants to be told, and use AI and new tools to do it sharper and faster. The goal has always been the same: help brands connect authentically with the people they're trying to reach.

One day I'll run my own agency. Until then, I'm building the body of work that earns it.

I studied marketing at James Madison University, spent a summer studying abroad at the University of Antwerp, and somehow ended up visiting 30+ cities across 9 countries. Every place taught me something about how people communicate, what they care about, and why some stories travel and others don't.

Observation over assumption. The best marketing comes from understanding why people do what they do — not just what they do. I read audiences before I write a word.
