In My Own Words
<p>I am a marketing professional with 11+ years of experience orchestrating brand campaigns and activations in both agency and brand settings. I’m skilled in building insights-driven strategies across digital, traditional, social, and paid media within the sports, apparel, tech, and automotive sectors. Most notably, I’ve led Strava to drive over $500k in upfront revenue during a 3-week campaign flight, and increased association with adidas’ new brand tagline by +4.8 points in a single quarter.</p>
