I'm a strategic and solutions-driven creative operations leader with a proven track record in marketing strategy, creative project management, and design execution. From elevating brand authority to leading high-impact event design, I bring a unique blend of operational agility and creative vision to every initiative.

With deep experience in cross-functional collaboration, stakeholder engagement, and scalable process development, I thrive in dynamic environments where storytelling meets strategy. Whether managing complex production workflows or forging industry partnerships, I focus on delivering results that align with business priorities and resonate with audiences.

My mission is to champion creativity, build meaningful partnerships, and drive growth through thoughtful execution and bold ideas.

As a strategic and solutions-oriented leader in creative operations, I specialize in optimizing workflows, aligning cross-functional teams, and delivering high-impact initiatives that support organizational goals. With a foundation in marketing strategy and hands-on experience managing design, copy, and event production, I bring a unique blend of creative insight and operational rigor to every project I lead.

As a marketing strategist for the industrials sector at EY, I elevated brand engagement through coordinated efforts across manufacturing and automotive industries. My work involved partnering closely with senior leadership, industry associations, and external collaborators—experience that has sharpened my ability to manage creative projects end-to-end, align messaging with strategic goals, and foster effective communication across teams.

Previously, at the University of Michigan, I served as Assistant Director of Event Design and Communications, managing a high-performing creative team and overseeing the creative execution of more than 100 high-profile events annually. This role honed my ability to manage complex projects, align with institutional priorities, and deliver exceptional experiences for executive audiences.

Throughout my career, I’ve demonstrated a commitment to operational excellence, creative problem-solving, and building strong relationships across complex organizations. I’m also highly proficient in Microsoft 365, Adobe Creative Suite, and platforms like Cvent, teamwork and Mailchimp—tools I’ve used to execute campaigns, manage events, and deliver measurable results.

I have a Bachelor's degree from Western Michigan University. My field of study was print management with a focus on design and communications.
