About

I lead with 5+ years of international experience, guiding content teams in remote, cross-cultural environments. I’ve worked across Australia, the USA, Nepal, and Switzerland—building content that’s practical, purposeful, and aligned with real business goals.

I operate at the intersection of strategy and execution: shaping content strategies and editorial plans, then writing, refining, and managing content across CMS platforms. I’m known for strong communication, strategic thinking, and using AI tools and analytics thoughtfully to improve quality, consistency, and impact.
