WHAT I DO
BRANDING
from scratch, or refurbished
I have a face that's launched a thousand Brands. I'm also not afraid to host a Brandtervention for a big ol' dinosaur. What I'm saying is Brands are my jam. From startups to things you'll find in your kitchen, wallet, and living room, let me at 'em.
CREATIVE DIRECTION
herding the creative hordes
Teamwork is the name of every game, and lucky for you, I'm an awesome teammate and leader. I teach, I hone, I encourage, I push, I mold. Across the country, and in other countries, my proteges have called me a delight, and many regularly seek to work with me again and again.
COPYWRITING
even though nobody reads it
Scripts, websites, emails -- whaddya need? "Can she grasp the complexities of my business challenges and market?" You betcha. "Create voices that speak to specific people and get them to change their behaviors?" Yep, do it daily. Try me.

When not giving tours of my ever-growing shoe collection, I’m a religious sports fan, avid reader and TV-watcher and conqueror of crossword puzzles. I bake and cook as my schedule allows, and am a regular human guinea pig for new restaurants and diversions.
