About

A marketing leader at the intersection of brand & growth.

I build full-funnel brand-to-demand engines that engage new audiences, shift perception, and drive measurable growth across pipeline, revenue, retention, and advocacy.

I've led global, multi-functional end-to-end teams across brand, growth, social, creative, media, lifecycle, events, and product marketing in B2C, B2B SaaS, AI, and Fintech, partnering closely with founder CEOs, C-Suite, and senior leadership to connect long-term vision with high-velocity execution.

I'm an early adopter of building and deploying agentic AI workflows, redesigning creative and marketing operations to compress speed-to-market, scale custom content, and reduce OpEx without sacrificing quality.

Earlier in my career, I was mentored by world-class storytellers from Pixar, Disney, Lucasfilm, and DreamWorks, shaping my belief that exceptional storytelling and creative excellence are some of the most powerful drivers of brand and business growth.
