What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead omni-channel content strategy and content operations, partnering with UX, software, and marketing to build audience-first communication systems that improve onboarding, engagement, consistency, and measurable business growth.

I’m a content strategist and communications professional with 12+ years of experience building audience-centric content ecosystems across digital platforms, campaigns, websites, mobile apps, social media, and brand communication. My work combines strategic thinking, storytelling, user experience, customer engagement, and operational execution to align brand objectives with audience growth and business outcomes.

Currently, I lead unified content and communication strategies across web and mobile to improve user engagement, onboarding experience, and messaging consistency. Previously, I drove end-to-end content and communications at ABG, including leading social media strategy that contributed to 3x audience growth, and strengthened SEO-aligned website storytelling and brand-led campaign communication across platforms.
