About
I’m a culturally-attuned executive communications and digital strategist with over a decade of experience helping global brands build meaningful connections with their audiences. From luxury beauty to lifestyle to entertainment, I’ve led influencer marketing, social media, and brand storytelling strategies that have generated millions in earned media value and sparked real engagement. As a communications and digital marketing leader with deep roots in the beauty and fashion industries, my experience lies in building brand equity and driving cultural relevance through innovative social, influencer, and storytelling strategies. Over the last decade, I’ve helped global brands scale their voice, reach new audiences, and generate double-digit earned media growth through authentic, inclusive, and trend-forward campaigns. I specialize in transforming brand narratives into editorial-caliber content, forging meaningful relationships with tastemakers and creators, and guiding executive leadership through high-stakes moments—from global launches to cultural shifts. I’m passionate about crafting narratives that resonate, elevating brand voices, and forging authentic partnerships with creators and cultural leaders. Whether activating talent across markets, launching global IP, or building fandoms, I bring clarity, creativity, and strategic edge to everything I touch. ------- Specialties: Public relations, writing and editing, social media, online marketing, digital strategy, social networks, digital engagement, online media, community management, branding and identity, fashion, beauty
