A senior integrated marketing strategist with both agency and brand-side experience, I have a proven track record delivering breakthrough, digitally-led campaigns and driving integrated marketing solutions in global corporations.
My career is built upon more than a decade of experience in social media marketing, which brings with it a native understanding for how digital has changed the way people interact with each other, and the impact that has on brands.
I love helping iconic brands reinterpret their marketing with digital at the core.
