About ME

 Don't let the youthful appearance fool you. I have 25+ years' creative marketing experience, spanning conceptual copywriting, content development, strategic planning, and regional marketing leadership.


I've conceived and written campaigns, defined and launched brands, produced terabytes of content, and won a reasonably large handful of awards. I've managed teams, projects, budgets, and sponsorships. And sold everything from careers serving peri peri chicken to complex financial derivatives.


Through it all, I've clung passionately to the power and potential of words. To create and communicate meaning. To inspire and inform understanding. To deliver the biggest of ideas and tiniest of nudges, shaping and sustaining brands with every sentence, script, and CTA.


That's why, even after all this time, I can't wait for the next brief to drop. Whatever it may be.
