creative direction, through thoughtful, disciplined evolution
My goal is to build and lead teams that translate strategy into culturally resonant, high-performing creative work.

No Fluff.
Not decorative.
A little weird.

Personal Tenets
What’s good for the brand is good for business.
Brand as a business accelerant. Protecting and growing the brand ensures sustainable impact across customers, partners, and revenue.
01Ask one more question. Take one more step.
Curiosity is the mechanism for reducing ambiguity. When the answer isn’t clear, go a level deeper. Don’t stop at the first assumption. Always learn one more “why,” take one more action, do one more test.
02Just because we can doesn’t mean we should.
Don’t confuse action with impact. Prioritize what matters most so our best selves and our best work show up.
03Experience
I began my career at Starbucks, shaping brand across packaging, retail, digital, and experiential systems. Through agency and in-house leadership, I strengthened my practice in brand stewardship and enterprise alignment. Leading global experiential and event platforms at AWS refined my ability to partner with executive stakeholders and scale creative systems across complex organizations. Over more than two decades, I’ve built a holistic view of brand, where culture, systems, and story operate as one to create lasting momentum.
