Marketing that's creative, effective and never boring.

I'm a marketing pro with 10 years of experience who loves solving problems with smart strategy, clever campaigns, and a healthy dose of sarcasm. I specialize in bringing bold ideas to life and nerding out over segmentation (because the right message to the right member actually matters).

From building lead scoring systems that slash abandonment rates, to campaigns that aim to double engagement (at the very least), I find creative solutions that move numbers and make people smile.
