Experience

1. Business Partner

   Crossbeam Industrial Marketing

   Apr 2025 — Present · Cincinnati, OH, US

   At Crossbeam Marketing, I partner with industrial and manufacturing companies to help them build stronger, smarter marketing programs that actually support their sales goals. As a co-founder and business partner, I wear a lot of hats—strategist, coach, advisor, and fractional marketing leader.I work closely with company leaders and their teams to assess what’s working, what’s not, and where marketing can better support growth. That means aligning marketing with sales, shaping strategy, building internal capabilities, and helping teams stay focused on what really moves the needle.I love helping organizations connect the dots between strategy and execution—whether that’s launching a new product, entering a new market, developing internal talent, or simply creating clarity around marketing’s role in driving business results.At the end of the day, I’m here to be a true partner—someone you can count on to help structure and strengthen your marketing foundation.At Crossbeam, we don’t believe in random acts of marketing. We believe in being the structural support—your crossbeam—for long-term success.
