As a Public Relations and Communications leader with more than 15 years of experience, I bring a unique perspective to every project I take on. Most recently in the DTC space, I focused on strategic brand communications through media relations, thought leadership, media training, and building company culture.I joined Tuft & Needle in Phoenix as an early startup employee in 2016 and oversaw brand public relations for the full Serta Simmons Bedding portfolio, inclusive of Tuft & Needle, Beautyrest, Serta and Simmons. Prior to returning to the city I was raised in to work for the company that won Entrepreneur’s Top Company Culture award, I gained extensive PR experience in New York and Los Angeles in independent film distribution for companies including Amplify Releasing, BOND Strategy and Influence, and Millennium Entertainment. I began my career at MPRM Communications, handling PR campaigns for various film releases including RED, Beginners and Food, Inc., award shows, film festivals, and served as the show publicist for “Jimmy Kimmel Live.”Currently, as a communications consultant at Decent Startup, I help teams achieve sustainable impact by breaking down overwhelming projects and goals into manageable tasks. I believe that being the loudest voice in the room isn't always the most effective approach. Instead, I help clients realize the importance of being the most prepared in the room when opportunities arise, ensuring that they make a lasting impression on their audience and drive meaningful results for their brand.As a direct and candid communicator, I'm always willing to provide feedback and guidance to help clients navigate even the most challenging situations. Whether you're facing a crisis, launching a new product, or simply trying to improve your brand's overall reputation, my steady, process-driven approach to public relations, copywriting, and social media will leave you well-prepared for whatever the day has to throw at you.Decent Startup was founded to provide strategic, creative, and operational leadership to companies aiming to strengthen their infrastructure.
