With over 6 years of experience at creative agencies and in-house, I am dedicated to advocating for creative projects and teams. I excel in gathering, organizing, and disseminating insights, as well as in strategic problem-solving and task prioritization.I am highly invested in the full lifecycle of creative projects, from inception and strategy to resourcing, budgeting, the creative process, and delivery. My goal is to nurture relationships, collaborate effectively, and provide leadership to ensure creative work is both exciting and seamlessly executed.Having developed a deep appreciation for my family’s restaurant and gallery businesses, I am eager to work with other professionals in (but not limited to) the arts and culture, museums, publications, hospitality, lifestyle and retail.
