Thanks for checking out my work!

The reason you’re here is to probably get a sense of who I am and what I do. But before I can talk about the present, we have to (quickly!) dive into the past… I hail from Akron, Ohio and went to school at Ohio University for Journalism. I love restaurant chains like Applebee’s (helloooo mozzarella sticks!) and have a few other Midwestern sensibilities I’m pretty fond of (including my strong work ethic). 

Fast forward to present day where I currently reside: New York. After a decade or so, we moved from San Francisco to the Hudson Valley – exploring all of its nooks and crannies. And over the last several of those years, I’ve worked as a Creative Strategist at Pinterest. Most recently, I moved over to Amazon to help build out their Creative Strategy arm on the advertising side.

I’ve worked on over 300+ brands over the years, helping them develop their creative strategies and developing and executing innovative marketing solutions. 

I love creative strategy, collaborating with others, and have a passion for storytelling. I also run a lifestyle and fashion blog called The Ohio Transplant that’s been a fun after-school project for the last 8 years.  

I look forward to meeting you IRL!
