About
A little about me
Part intuition.
Part intention.
I'm a creative director and multidisciplinary marketer working at the intersection of lifestyle, wellness, culture, and human connection.
With an instinct for storytelling and an appreciation for aesthetics, I'm drawn to the people, places, and ideas that shape how we live. My work spans hospitality, fashion, wellness, and experiential design—always with an eye toward creating something meaningful.
Equal parts intuitive and strategic, I translate what makes a brand distinct into experiences people can see, feel, and connect with.
Beyond my work, I'm endlessly curious about consciousness, emerging technology, and our evolving relationship with the world we're creating.
Drawn to what makes us feel something.
Beautiful spaces. Thoughtful rituals. Emerging ideas. Human connection. The intersection of the material world and everything we can't quite explain.
