CLIENTS
HOW I WORK
I come in as a strategic partner—working closely with marketing and executive teams to identify gaps, align stakeholders, and move key initiatives forward.
​
Some engagements are project-based (brand audits, rebrands, messaging workshops). Others are ongoing partnerships where I support multiple areas of marketing and communications (owning comms and managing writers, designers, and agencies).
I pride myself on being easy to plug in—able to quickly understand the business, identify what’s missing, and start adding value without a long ramp-up.​
​
I take a thoughtful approach to AI—using it to accelerate research, content, and execution while ensuring the work remains clear, differentiated, and grounded in real customer understanding and unique perspectives.
WHAT I DO
BRAND + POSITIONING
I help teams get to the heart of what's working with their brand, positioning, and messaging—and transform what's not into differentiated stories that resonate.
STRATEGY + EXECUTION
THOUGHT LEADERSHIP
I bring proactivity and structure to marketing efforts—helping teams prioritize, align, and execute programs that actually move the business and brand forward.
I support internal, external, and exec comms and content strategies that build credibility, strengthen positioning, and create relationships with the right audiences.
