I collaboratively build solutions that help companies implement and maintain effective marketing and sales systems. I approach chaos with curiosity and I'm well-versed in both strategy and hands-on production.

I’m an artist, reader, lifelong learner, and beach bum. When I’m not working, I love spending time with my husband, playing with our two rescue pups, and taking our Jeep out to Freeman Park for the day.
