Strategy and creative hybrid executive with 15+ years’ experience synergizing business, product, and creative goals. Award winning. Collaborative. Data-Obsessed. Change agent. High energy. Steadfast resolve. MBA. My career has spanned start-ups and family business to Fortune5 organizations, and this breadth of experience has yielded scrappy resourcefulness with great appreciation for client goals and pain points. I am able to navigate red-tape and bureaucracy professionally while also delivering quantified and tangible results. I find inefficiency and blind adherence to the status quo incredibly frustrating and have learned to build alliances to drive disruptive change in companies ranging from 20 employees to 200,000+. I bring a general management approach to marketing and am driven by improving the top- and bottom-line. I am equally comfortable defining strategy and managing execution through delegation and diving in to accomplish the task at hand on my own. I can often be found on YouTube learning a new skill to cover for a colleague or team member at the last minute and have a healthy obsession with Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's Flow Theory (& productivity hacks).
