For over two decades, I’ve bridged the gap between traditional craft and the fast-moving digital frontier. Having scaled creative for brands like McDonald’s, Capital One, and Nestlé, I’ve learned that the most resonant work—whether a 30-second spot or a social campaign—is born from a people-first philosophy. My leadership is built on empathy and Agile methodology, honed through years of dedicated mentorship and inclusive management training. I don’t just manage teams of designers and editors; I cultivate environments where they thrive. From the early days of TV to the evolution of social-first content, my passion remains the same: creating simple, eye-catching stories that move the needle. I’d love to meet you and the team to see if my experience is the perfect fit for your next chapter.…For over two decades, I’ve bridged the gap between traditional craft and the fast-moving digital frontier.
