I am a content strategist, a marketing consultant, a writer, a photographer, a mom and an optimist.

I am passionate about brand building, marketing and social media. I love to help people tell their stories. Much of my career has been helping people figure out what they want to say - and giving them the words to say it in.

I am happiest creating something from scratch or discovering something new.

I love to cook. My husband calls my technique "Viking style." Ingredients are rough-chopped and experimentation plays a big part.

I was on the board of the Richardson Bay Audubon Center in Tiburon for five years and still champion their cause: conservation engagement.

I studied Modern Culture and Media at Brown University. I planned to go to grad school, but couldn't decide between film, journalism, advertising or business.

Having grown up in Boston and New York, I have now lived most of my life in the San Francisco Bay Area, where I truly feel at home.
