What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a mission-driven role where I can grow brand visibility through integrated marketing, content, social media, partnerships, and audience-focused events.

At Submaterial, I lead marketing, communications, public relations, and social media for a sustainably focused design and manufacturing studio. I developed its Shopify website, improved SEO, and grew Instagram from 3,000 to more than 16,000 followers.

I've also built content and audience strategies for Urban Archive, USC Fisher Museum of Art, and the Albuquerque International Balloon Museum, including 75+ walking tours, 3,000+ researched historical-location stories, newsletters, websites, exhibitions, and major public events.
