ABOUT​

Operating at the high-stakes nexus of media innovation and market influence, I provide the executive vision and tactical agility required to scale brand authority. As a "Swiss-Army Knife" of marketing, PR, and communications, I bring a rare, multi-disciplinary toolkit to the table—seamlessly pivoting from high-level brand strategy to the ground-level execution of tier-one media campaigns.

​

My track record includes engineering high-impact communications and visibility strategies for some of Chicago’s most renowned mission-driven organizations. By leveraging sophisticated storytelling and aggressive media outreach, I transform complex missions into measurable public influence and market leadership.
