I wanted to make documentary films but detoured into marketing. So, here I am, utilizing my storytelling and creative talents, plus the strategic and analytical skills I’ve honed over 15+ years as an integrated marketer to grow franchise brands. My style is that of a no-nonsense, hard-charging Chicagoan with the kind heart of a Midwesterner. Passions include; international travel, social justice, writing, and most of all, my family.
