Over the last seven years, I’ve helped an agency lead nationally recognized brands like ASICS, Taylor Guitars, Petco, Monster Energy, and El Pollo Loco, while also picking up a few new business wins along the way. As a strategist, I’m using my mind for business and my heart for the consumer to help the ideas get made and drive brands forward.

My time as a strategist has been short, but I’ve been studying humans all my life and have developed an innate ability to understand what moves them. Now, with an MA in Social Psychology, I shine in uncovering those little secrets about what it means to be human and helping brands grow by using them to affect change for the better.

Chicago is my home, but I can hardly sit still. Whether it’s off running a new system of trails or riding aisle seat over open oceans and borders to get a taste of something new, I am always on the move. While I’m not searching for any one thing in particular, over the hundreds of thousands of miles I’ve traveled, I’ve discovered this obsessive urge to explore and venture into the unknown isn’t just locked inside me but something we all share.
