I’m an experienced manager, storyteller, and marketer with deep roots in technology, media, and education. I’ve built and led content programs across large companies, startups, and universities, blending reporting, interviewing, copyediting, and team development to drive engagement and measurable results. I am a trained editor, actor, and writer.
I thrive on turning complex topics into clear, accessibility-first narratives—whether through GTM content, research reports, or multimedia storytelling. My passion is building communities, mentoring teams, and shaping content strategy that aligns with product and business goals.
