Creative Problem Solver

With over a decade of creative advertising and marketing experience, I know how to create strategic solutions to business problems. From re-brands to process efficiencies, I believe there’s no challenge that can’t be overome with a little creativity.

Impact Comms Professional

As a student of environmental, social and governance strategy, I’m learning how to align business goals and objectives with those that foster a more equitable and inclusive environment.

Small Business Owner

I’m a serious crafter with a desire to share my creations with the world. I launched my bath bomb businesss, Nasty Bubbles, in 2017, and my pet crochet business, Magnolia May Pet Crochet, this year in 2024!
