About
I'm a digital marketer and campaign execution partner with over 8 years of experience helping brands turn strategy into results. I've worked across events, financial services, home services, wellness, and consumer packaged goods. These days, I focus on helping early-stage health and wellness-focused CPG brand founders and marketers - particularly in the functional food/beverage and supplement space - who need someone to actually do the work, not just send over another strategy deck. Your plate is overflowing. Emails, social media, events, influencers, affiliates... you're juggling it all, but it never feels like enough. You're stuck between big-picture strategy and the hundred small details that make campaigns actually work. Your brain is always on. Your bandwidth left months ago. You want to delegate, but handing off your brand voice or campaign logistics feels risky. You've outsourced before and ended up redoing everything yourself at 11pm. You don't lack vision. You lack a partner who can think strategically, execute without constant hand-holding, and communicate like an actual human. I'm a campaign manager and marketing execution partner. I handle both the thinking and the doing. My core skills: Email marketing campaigns Social media strategy and management Influencer and affiliate program execution Events and brand activation campaigns Whether you're launching a product, building email flows, or managing influencer partnerships from kickoff to reporting, I take care of it. My interest in this space isn't just professional. I'm in the kitchen testing recipes, at the gym chasing PRs, trying random workout classes, and exploring trails around Las Vegas. I understand the wellness consumer because I am one. I know what actually lands versus what just sounds good in a brand guideline. If you need someone who can handle strategy and execution in the health and wellness space, let's talk. I'm based in Las Vegas and work with clients remotely and locally.
