ABOUT ME
I’m a professional communicator passionate about mass communication, compelling storytelling, technology, and effective marketing methodologies.
My desire is to always create content that educates, empowers, resonates and transforms through the power of story. I also possess exceptional creative and technical ability to manage and execute various media content. I love different facets of connecting with an audience. I enjoy creating integrated marketing campaigns as much I enjoy fine-tooth combing app updates to ensure the user experience is optimized. Being geeky about media and technology from an early age has definitely shaped my career.
I have several years of B2B, B2C, and SaaS experience in the corporate and non-profit sectors.
