Fun Fact

I was chair of the planning committee for my university’s annual music festival, where I helped book a Grammy-nominated artist and led the team behind the entire event. From budgeting to backstage passes, I got a hands on learning in live event chaos and loved every second of it.

Passion

I’m motivated by the power of creativity in arts and entertainment to move people. Blending that with marketing lets me tell stories, build experiences, and connect audiences to something meaningful. I’m driven by projects that mix strategy with imagination and leave a lasting impression.
