Tap to learn my approach to these areas.

NOTE: Every approach is malleable to fit the need


  • Marketing is a mix of creativity, strategy, and execution. A take I have is a data-backed, audience-first approach—understanding consumer behavior and translating insights into campaigns that drive engagement and conversions. This means getting hands-on with 1P, Qualitative data to truly understand the customer.

    Whether leading teams or managing external partners, I ensure alignment, adaptability, and impact across all channels

  • I believe scaling eCommerce is about optimizing every touchpoint—from the customer journey to all internal workflows.

    I focus on building smart tech stacks, automating processes, and continually improving efficiencies to drive growth. At the same time, I know when to act, avoiding Analysis Paralysis to keep operations agile and effective in fast-paced environments

  • Strategizing begins with understanding the needs of all stakeholders, actively listening to their vision, and asking clarifying questions. Then, I break down complex ideas into bite-sized, manageable pieces to ensure clarity and alignment across internal teams and target audiences. I focus on refining, simplifying, and adapting strategies based on real-time feedback and evolving business needs—ensuring nothing gets lost in execution

  • Branding is more than visuals—it’s about crafting a cohesive narrative that shapes how people experience, remember, and engage with a company. Branding should be consistent yet flexible, evolve with the audience, and tell a compelling story that builds trust and recognition

  • Advertising isn’t about growth but strategic positioning to fuel long-term strategies. Growth is an outcome of that strategy.

    For eCommerce and live selling, a tactic I leverage is “Mass Appeal” low-CPC ads to attract a high volume of viewers—regardless of intent to buy. These ads are pushed during live streams, which in turn boosts live stream engagement. This triggers platform algorithms to push the stream to even larger audiences, expanding reach and increasing organic visibility.

    For corporate and nonprofit brands, a focus can be on authority-building campaigns, strategically placing ads where key decision-makers will see them, reinforcing brand credibility, and ensuring consistent industry presence, so when it’s time to “Make the Ask,” they are primed

  • Clear, effective communication is the foundation of strong teams, great marketing, and successful leadership. Whether it’s internal alignment, external messaging, or cross-functional collaboration, keeping people informed, engaged, and motivated is the priority. I work daily to ensure communication flows across all levels by fostering an open, no-question-is-off-limits approach

  • Project management is more than timelines and checklists—it’s about alignment, momentum, and problem-solving. Balancing structure with adaptability is key when complex projects, multiple teams, and tight deadlines intersect. I work to keep a clear focus on the end goal while remaining responsive to shifting priorities. My approach is collaborative, proactive, and solutions-focused, ensuring teams stay engaged, addressing obstacles early, and projects are delivered on time and within budget

  • Creating a structured environment where teams feel valued, heard, and empowered leads to increased motivation, trust, and high-quality work. I’m flexible but firm, ensuring accountability at every level. By fostering trust, collaboration, and clear communication, I keep teams focused, engaged, and productive while driving meaningful results
