My Purpose:
InspireCuriosity

Your product is not average. You built something to create change, to inspire, to spark curiosity, and to improve lives. But knowing how to get people to notice it, that's a different skill entirely.

I'm an Emmy Award-winning Producer, Writer & Director, and my job is to close that gap. My background in Mechanical Engineering taught me how to break down complex products and ideas, while my experience in Writing, Sales, and Production taught me how to communicate those ideas in a way that connects with people. I've led branded campaigns for large brands like Starbucks, Lay’s and Samsung, earned three International MARCOM Awards, and helped content reach millions of viewers. 

Whether it’s a one person influencer campaign or a large scale broadcast commercial, I can build the right production around the idea and find the story that inspires curiosity and leads to action. 

You created something to create change. Let's inspire people to notice it. Reach out and let's get started.
