I work with purpose-driven clients to design and launch products that empower customers, drive business growth, and create a positive impact. Over the past 15 years, I've founded two startups, led an innovation consultancy, designed products for multiple companies, advised a high-growth wellness brand, and worked as a photojournalist for a global news agency.
These experiences enable me to lead creative projects through all stages of development: research, strategy, concept, testing, design, build, launch, market, and scaling. The thread that ties it all together is my strength in revealing a brand’s true value, developing opportunities for innovation, and bringing them to life through ventures, experiences, and stories.
