hi there,
I’m a creative director who has spent the last decade meandering through creative spaces — pretending to fit into the corporate agency world, building confidence in the music industry world [It’s OK* co-founder], cutting my teeth in the talent management world [MorMor + KARIM OLEN ASH] , and making friends and while building community in the event production world [Pollen founder] — before finding home somewhere in the middle.
At the cross-section of music, culture, community and advertising I’ve found a pretty nice nook with a fresh perspective, which has allowed me to create and tell stories that matter to me personally while impacting audiences globally.
Today, I take pride in shaping purpose driven work, teams and creatives through a process inspired by play and the kind of curiosity that thrives in equitable, safe and supportive spaces.
BORN TO: ask questions, break bread in good company, take my time, play outside, TikTok.
FORCED TO: make small talk, decide what to eat for dinner, go to bed, own a smartphone, LinkedIn.
CURRENTLY: on mat leave raising a precious little sprout named Betty Sly*~
Looking forward to chatting about work, dogs, and that guilty pleasure on your daily playlist.
XOXO
