About

With a BFA in Photography from Parsons School of Design, I have built a dynamic career as a Social Media Creative Consultant, Digital Strategist, and Content Creator. Since 2016, I have collaborated with high-profile clients like Meta, Google, and Amazon, and worked with renowned agencies such as Organic/RAPP and Huge. My expertise extends to photography, where I have captured and retouched images for prestigious brands including Vogue.com, Louis Vuitton, and Calvin Klein. Previously, I served as a Senior Account Supervisor at Edelman, where I led the launch of Samsung Mobile's Instagram presence and managed a $1 million budget. As Creative Director at IMG Models, I spearheaded rebranding efforts and significantly grew their social media following. My earlier role as Art Director at Women Management involved leading the Art Department and enhancing the agency's digital presence.
