I produce high-impact brand, digital, and experiential projects and manage creative operations with agency partners and in-house teams.

For over a decade, I’ve helped my clients and cross-functional teams bring creative vision and business goals into focus, clarify requirements, and balance ambition with precision to elevate the quality and efficiency of our work. 

Based on the unceded territories of beautiful Vancouver, B.C., I’m available for local, select travel, and remote projects now.

With experience supporting exciting startups, important non-profits, and global brands, I’m able to adapt from lean to complex processes, maximize tight to large budgets, and scale for established to emerging brand equity.

I’ve navigated complex regulatory and legal, asset management, and stakeholder approval processes, and helped identify and fill gaps in collaborative workflows with small to large organizations.

Project scope

From multi-platform integrated campaigns to bespoke brand assets to large-scale art programming, I care about doing good work with good people, staying organized without killing the vibe, and supporting a collaborative environment where creativity can thrive.
