About

By trade, I’m a media producer and digital content strategist who thrives where creativity meets structure. At my core, I’m just a girl who loves cats and traveling. I have 7+ years of experience at iconic brands like National Geographic, Brand USA, and Paramount+, I’ve led end-to-end content workflows - from pre-production to post - while building systems that keep creative projects on time and on point. Whether I’m producing a weekly podcast, streamlining post-production pipelines, or organizing a DAM system with 700,000+ assets, I bring clarity, calm, and a touch of joy to the process. My superpowers? Translating creative chaos into order, managing complex projects with empathy and precision, and helping teams feel both inspired and supported. When I’m not building timelines or writing briefs, you can find me binge-watching dramas, hopping on a travel adventure, or dreaming up my next creative side project. Let’s build something that works and wows.
