It’s deeply important to me that my work is meaningful; that what I produce, and that the lives my work touches result in something positive. This value, along with constantly learning, innovating, and finding time to laugh, form the basis of my guiding principles.
It has led me to work for organizations I believe in. I have spent the majority of my career working in the world of nonprofit organizations -- furthering social justice, equity, and making my community and world a better place.

I design, produce and manage online marketing in a collaborative environment. I organize project needs into creative direction, then implement a team's shared vision. And I manage chaos into on-time deliverables (while simultaneously singing Broadway standards).
I'm so glad you asked! It's not just my background in leading successful projects, or my ability to work with a wide range of people (developers, vendors, writers), but I'm also passionate about the work I do and my impact on those I work with. I'm a leader, I'm kind-of funny, and I like to laugh.
