About

I love helping brands find their voice and build an online presence that feels warm, clear, and true to who they are. Before social media, I spent six years in merchandising operations at Ralph Lauren organizing launches, managing product stories, and working closely with creative teams. That experience taught me the power of timing, visuals, and thoughtful storytelling. Now I use that same energy to plan content, organize systems, and create strategies that help small businesses and creators grow with confidence.
