Using a human-centered and data-driven approach to produce creative marketing and business solutions for organizations who want to make the world a little better.

Worked closely with clients to produce impactful strategies and creative marketing to achieve their business goals. I freelanced as a copywriter for international agencies such as Ogilvy and VML on long-term retainer bases.

Took a break from marketing to reconnect with psychology in the best way possible. Faced my fears of talking to teenagers; turns out they're not so bad. The future can be in good hands if we stop ruining it for them.

Was the showrunner and performer for a sketch show that parodied national TV on national TV.
