About

With a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism and Mass Communication from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, I have cultivated a diverse career in sales, project management, and consultancy. As an Account Director and New Business Consultant since 2018, I have collaborated with agencies like Blurr Bureau and Wolf & Wilhelmine, working with clients such as Live Nation and Goldman Sachs. My expertise includes process management and new business acquisition. Previously, I managed sales for Schatzi Wines and Martine's Wines in New York, focusing on client relationships and portfolio representation. As General Manager at Hart's, a Brooklyn restaurant, I excelled in team coaching, beverage program curation, and guest relations. My role as Project Manager at Wolf & Wilhelmine involved working with high-profile clients like Nike and Grey Goose, building purpose-driven brands. My career reflects a commitment to driving growth and fostering dynamic team environments.
