A Creative PM (PMP®), Creative Producer, and Storyteller.
RESUME
Professional Summary
I'm a PMP-certified creative with 8+ years of experience working within and leading production workflows across digital campaigns, content development, and cross-functional initiatives. I've led seasonal campaigns that drove measurable business results, built content programs that outlasted my tenure, and art-directed everything from podcast launches to photoshoots. But most importantly, I know how to keep complex projects moving when stakeholders have competing priorities. All while building scalable processes, coordinating vendors without drama, and translating between creative and business teams.
