Building brands and design teams to grow business value.
I've led in-house and agency teams, launched an award-winning agency and created high-performing integrated campaigns for SaaS, CPG, B2B and B2C companies. I thrive at connecting strategy to hands-on design and leading cross-functional partners to build brand equity.
I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and have worked in-house at Rocket Lawyer, Constellation Wines and Industrial Light & Magic. My agency experience includes working with Catchword Branding, Turner Duckworth, Sterling Brands, Trinity Brands and Thermostat.
