I’m passionate about helping brands forge meaningful connections through the transformational power of Storytelling.
Philosophy
Throughout my career, one theme has remained consistent: a deep curiosity about people.
Touchpoints and technologies may change, but people have remained fairly consistent.
This belief has informed the foundational pillars of my philosophy:
Strong strategy brings clarity out of complexity
Collaboration is the fastest path to stronger ideas
Cultural relevance comes from listening before speaking
Great storytelling turns strategy into something people can feel
For my clients, I believe the future of marketing isn’t just about reaching consumers—it’s about meaningfully connecting with the communities that brands hope to serve. Attention can be bought, but trust and relevance must be earned.
Helping organizations navigate this shift is what I do best.
Journey
Over the past decade, I’ve worked at the intersection of brand strategy, communications planning, and creative insight, helping organizations turn complex challenges into clear strategic direction. My work has spanned global brands, emerging challengers, and complete unknowns at some of the most respected creative agencies in the industry.
My passion for integrated strategist shapes how I approach every challenge. Over the course of my career, I’ve helped:
Reposition brands and lead end-to-end communications planning for national campaigns
Launch new products, expand product portfolios, and penetrate new categories
Translate insights and ideas into actionable strategic direction
Build collaborative planning processes that bring creative, media, and strategy together earlier and more effectively
Currently, I’ve been spearheading and building the Communications Planning discipline at Saatchi & Saatchi from the ground up—transforming it from a new concept into a respected and indispensable strategic capability shaping both campaign development and long-term brand initiatives.
Building a new discipline requires more than strong strategy. It requires navigating organizational complexity, bringing people together across silos, and helping teams see the bigger picture. My role sits at the center of creative, media, and strategy teams—aligning diverse perspectives in order to provide real value for both the brand and the collective consumer experience.
Interests
When I’m not thinking about building brands and businesses, you’ll likely find me pouring over a good book, picking out a new bourbon for my collection, or planning the next dinner party to host (theme and all).
