From backpacking through Europe to spending a summer in Japan to hiking Machu Picchu, I have spent my life seeking adventure, traveling the world and learning about different cultures. This passion has led me to over 20 countries and 4 continents. My adventures include witnessing Gordon Brown being sworn in by the Queen and watching the US men’s soccer team defeat Ghana during the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

After graduating from UC Santa Barbara, I was fortunate enough to turn my passion for learning about different countries and my love of the cinema into a livelihood when I began working at Summit Entertainment (now Lionsgate) in International Marketing & Publicity. Over the course of my career, I have had the pleasure of overseeing international marketing campaigns for some of the biggest films of all time including The Twilight Saga franchise, The Hunger Games franchise and 2014’s Academy Award Winner for Best Picture 12 Years a Slave. I have also developed a strong global network comprised of the Entertainment Industry’s smartest and most creative individuals.

Even when I am at home and off the clock, I continue to indulge my desire to learn about the world by scouring Los Angeles for exciting new ethnic dishes and practicing my Spanish. So whether it is translating an app into 10 different languages, researching the various social media platforms in China or discovering ancient ruins in Mexico City, I approach every facet of my life from a very global perspective.
